As a professional painter with a Master of Fine Arts degree, I pursue a multifaceted mission that unites abstract modernity and contemporary trends. My works, predominantly created in acrylic and mixed media, are a harmonious interplay of bold and delicate brushstrokes, creating an expressive and dynamic visual language. I draw significant inspiration from artists like Joan Mitchell and Emil Schumacher, renowned for their groundbreaking contributions to abstract art. Like Mitchell, I strive to capture my innermost emotions and personal experiences on the canvas. Her powerful brushstrokes and vibrant color compositions serve as a wellspring of inspiration for me, shaping my own expressive language.Simultaneously, I find a role model in Emil Schumacher, whose abstract works evoke a raw and energetic atmosphere. His experimental approach and use of materials have influenced my style, encouraging me to explore different techniques and mediums. Through the incorporation of mixed media, such as collages, pastel chalks, or ink, I can add an extra dimension to my works and delve into a broader range of textures and expressive possibilities.In my creations, I construct abstract compositions that generate an emotional resonance through their expressive quality and interplay of colors, shapes, and lines. My brushstrokes fluctuate between bold, energetic movements and finer, subtle nuances, creating a visually captivating and multilayered narrative. The canvas becomes a space where my thoughts, feelings, and memories manifest, providing the viewer with room for their own interpretations.Within my artistic practice, I strive to bridge the visible and the invisible. My works embody an inner journey, wherein I explore the limits of the abstract and search for a universal language that transcends words and conventions.
