My artistic journey, which began with color harmonies, continues with aesthetic exploration. I question the beauty through abstract expression, mature, and struggle to find it. I grapple with self-hatred and a sense of inferiority, as the things I do fail to arouse me and I approach my own self with accusatory inquiries, closing my consciousness. After this process, I enter a phase where I realize that I am not the culprit of everything that enlightens me, and I start to refrain from blaming myself. I allow unconscious processes to flow through my mind and engage in a psychoanalytic process where I confront my thoughts and my self. As a result, the images that merge with my dreams and the images I draw, and the acceleration of the process I am in, are intertwined with art, and the transfer or projection of my unique aesthetic pursuit in union with art. I feel peace, happiness, and both tranquility and restlessness while not being alone with these canvases.
