About art:
In art, I like to work with different materials, because the experience I get is different, and my thoughts and reactions to it are different. My paintings are at the intersection of landscape and abstraction.
The main theme of the entire artistic journey: observing and reinterpreting the traces of life left by man and the connection with nature, home and time. In art I explore: cultural identity; the impact of war on people's thoughts and actions, on nature. collective trauma.
