Disturbances Painting

Inspired by the ancient art of Suminagashi, which uses inks floating on water, I developed my own unique artistic technique, which I call ‘LIQUID IMPRESSIONS’. I design and capture distinctive shapes and textures to use them to build my visual narrative. I aim to achieve harmony between stability and chaos, imposing my own will on the piece whilst embracing its irregularity. I am instrumental in transforming fluid forms into a solid and permanent state at the critical point of immersion. The results are vivid, translucent, richly saturated and evocative images with almost photographic qualities. By building layers, texture and transparencies, I manipulate the naturally occurring dispersion processes of pigments to create contemplative and inspiring artwork. In each work I explore the equilibrium between boldness and intricacy, the balancing of positive form and negative space, the telescopic and the microscopic detail. I have always been fascinated by the microscopic patterns and textures seen in nature, they are both intricate and yet beautifully simple. Their appearance preserves the moment of their creation, governed by chemical reactions and physical stresses, which might have occurred over millions of years or in merely an instant.
