From the Collection "Traces; Remnants" No. 31 Photograph - Limited Edition of 7

As an artist with a journey spanning over three decades, my path has been a rich tapestry of evolving expression and personal growth. Initially, as a teenager my foray into the arts began with theater. For five transformative years, I immersed myself in the world of performance, where the stage became a place to manifest my creative impulses. Theater taught me the power of presence, the art of embodying characters, and the intricacies of narrative storytelling. It was a period marked by intense learning, where each role I played added layers to my understanding of human emotions and interactions. Transitioning from theater, I found my next calling in photography. This shift represented a move from the dynamism of the stage to the stillness of the lens. Photography honed my eye for detail and composition. It was through the camera's viewfinder that I learned to capture the subtleties of light, shadow, and moment. This medium allowed me to explore the world in snapshots, each frame a frozen narrative, telling stories in a way words never could. My photographs were reflections of my journey, each click a documentation of my evolving perspective. My artistic journey then led me to the realm of video art. Here, I found a synergy between my theatrical roots and my photographic eye. Video art was an exhilarating blend of performance, visual imagery, and storytelling. It provided a canvas to experiment with time, motion, and sound. This medium was transformative, allowing me to create immersive experiences that engaged audiences in multisensory narratives. My video artworks were not just visual feasts; they were invitations to viewers to step into alternate realities, to experience stories that were as much theirs as they were mine. Finally, my path brought me to painting, a return to the tactile and the tangible. In painting, I found the freedom to express with bold strokes and vibrant colors. Each canvas became a world unto itself, a space where my experiences, thoughts, and emotions could coalesce into visual poetry. Painting was a process of introspection and reflection. It was here that I could distill the essence of my theater performances, the depth of my photographs, and the dynamism of my video art into singular, potent expressions. My artistic trajectory is a testament to my belief in continuous learning and evolution. Each form of art I have delved into has contributed to my unique voice and vision.
