An artwork from my "Back in NYC" series - an oil painting capturing a plastic bag adorned with the iconic KFC logo. This artwork delves into the heart of pop art, celebrating the unique transformation of everyday objects, while also prompting reflection on environmental impact. During my explorations in New York City, I couldn't help but notice the prevalence in the food industry of non-biodegradable plastic bags and glasses, and, as a European visitor, it struck me how unfamiliar these objects were in comparison to the more environmentally friendly options back home. In this painting, I aim to juxtapose the familiarity of the KFC logo with the environmental concerns raised by its packaging. While these bags serve a practical purpose, they also underscore the broader issue of single-use plastics and their lasting impact on our planet. Through the lens of pop art, I seek to shed light on this dichotomy - transforming a mundane object into a thought-provoking piece of art that prompts us to consider our consumer choices and their environmental repercussions.

My artistic journey revolves around the exploration of two distinct yet interconnected themes: the chiaroscuro portraiture of predominantly female subjects and the depiction of mass-produced everyday objects transformed into unique artifacts through human intervention. Through these two bodies of work, I delve into the profound relationship between humanity and its creations, shedding light on the beauty and complexity that arise from our interactions with the world. In my chiaroscuro portraiture, I seek to capture the essence of the human spirit by delicately playing with light and shadow. The interplay of light and dark highlights the depth and complexity of emotions, unveiling the hidden layers of the human psyche. Through the careful rendering of facial features and the intricate dance of shadows, I aim to create intimate portraits that invite viewers to contemplate the universality of human experiences. Within my series of mass-produced objects, I explore the transformative power of human touch and intervention. Everyday items such as crushed cans, crumpled branded bags, or disposable coffee cups become vessels of individual narratives. By juxtaposing these familiar objects against the backdrop of our consumerist culture, I challenge the viewer to reevaluate their relationship with the material world and consider the imprint of human presence. Through both portraiture and object representation, the human figure remains a constant presence in my work. Whether it is the intricate expressions on a face or the traces left by our hands on inanimate objects, the human touch serves as a reminder of our agency and influence in shaping the world around us. I strive to capture the tension between the mass-produced and the individual, exploring the delicate balance between conformity and personal expression. In the realm of portraiture, I aim to evoke a sense of empathy and connection, inviting viewers to recognize themselves in the faces of my subjects. Through the portrayal of predominantly female figures, I explore themes of identity, femininity, and the societal expectations placed upon women. By highlighting the unique qualities and narratives of these individuals, I seek to challenge preconceived notions and foster a deeper understanding of the diverse range of human experiences. In the realm of objects, I invite viewers to contemplate the stories embedded within the mundane.
