STOP FEMICIDE (WOMEN'S DAY 2021) Print

My artistic journey began with a simple fascination for colours and the narratives they can convey. I have always been captivated by the way hues interact and the stories that emerge from their interplay. Each piece I create reflects my desire to explore the dynamic relationship between colours and the diverse materials that shape them. Over the years, I have continuously experimented with a wide range of artistic mediums. Beginning with acrylics, then moving on to oils and various mixed media, I have always sought to challenge myself and discover new ways for creative expression. This process of experimentation has become a cornerstone of my practice, ensuring that each work is infused with freshness and a spirit of discovery. For me, art is an ongoing journey—one that is both exciting and transformative. I am deeply grateful for every step along the way, recognising that each piece I create stands as a testament to the myriad colours of my life. Each artwork not only marks a stage in my personal evolution but also serves as a bridge for conversation and connection with others. Refusing to confine myself to a single medium, I incorporate an array of materials into my work—some conventional, others not. I often include natural pigments and organic elements such as paper, textiles, sand, and sawdust, materials that may initially seem unrelated to the traditional pictorial world. By doing so, I break down the barriers between art and daily life, creating pieces that are both evocative and accessible. My process is deeply tactile and experimental. I apply colour using brushes, knives, handmade squeegees, sponges, or even my hands. Once the paint is on the surface, I drag and scrape through layers of wet or dry paint, leaving distinctive marks behind. That gives a nice “used” effect and creates the story of the work. My goal is to continue working with the same passion I have always had, exploring new ideas and creating works that inspire people and help them see things from a different perspective. My works are in private collections all over the world. I have exhibited internationally in several solo and group exhibitions.
