My work begins with a daily collage practice, a sustained engagement with material, rhythm, and perception. Working intuitively, I assemble fragments of color, texture, and form into small compositions that register immediate responses to what is seen and felt. These collages are not studies but acts of attention, where meaning emerges through juxtaposition and change.

The paintings extend this process. Fragments are translated and reconfigured, moving from the intimacy of collage into a more fluid and spatial language. Rather than describing specific places, the work draws from direct experience of landscape, its shifting light, unstable horizons and intensity. What remains is not a depiction, but a trace: a balance between observation and internal response.

Across both collage and painting, surfaces are built through layering, gesture and erasure. Forms appear and dissolve, creating a tension between structure and openness, abstraction and recognition. The surface becomes a site of negotiation, where elements are held in relation.

At its core, my work examines how meaning takes shape through perception. Light, movement, and material are used to create a sense of presence, something immediate and held in experience rather than explanation.
