When I create art, I always find myself balancing between seeking and stating. Am I asking or telling? Does this bold splash of colour probe or proclaim? Sometimes, I want my work to invite curiosity, while other times, I want it to confidently assert itself.

Sometimes, it’s simply about appreciating its visual impact without deeper meaning.
