The duality and wordplay I’ve incorporated into the title serve as a gateway into two contrasting interpretations, both of which convey essential philosophical and metaphysical concepts: 1. "Synching Chords" - Finding Resonance and Harmony: This interpretation speaks to the idea of self-discovery, self-expression, and the search for inner resonance. The cords covering the face symbolizes the complex threads of thoughts, emotions, experiences, and connections that make up a person's individuality. The act of "synching chords" suggests an attempt to align oneself with these intricate threads, to resonate with the core essence of one's being. It's about embracing authenticity, personal growth, and finding a harmony within oneself and with the world around us. 2. "Sink in Cords" - Losing Identity in Routine: On the flip side, "sink in cords" conveys a cautionary message about the dangers of losing oneself in the monotonous routines and expectations of society. It suggests the potential to become entangled or consumed by external pressures and influences, leading to a loss of individuality and a sense of being disconnected from one's true self. This interpretation serves as a reminder to stay mindful of how easily we can fall into patterns that may not align with our deeper desires and aspirations. I would like to provoke reflection and contemplation on one’s own life and choices, inviting them to consider whether they are actively "synching chords" with their authentic selves or unknowingly "sinking in cords" of routine and external expectations.

The paintings are always very figurative in which the focus is often on the face. However, these are not portraits as such. When I portray something, it is their understated and introspective posture, and they reflect my own introspective quest. The realization that identity is really just a story. It doesn't lead me to answers about who I am, but what I am. My body is an energetic vessel that I experience in my consciousness, not the other way around. We were never taught to look from that point of view. In an analytically programmed mind, this does not seem rational. The thinking exercise starts very intuitively at first, but gradually seeps back in rationally. The titles that some works are given can contribute to the expression of these thoughts, but I prefer not to restrict the freedom to experience the paintings too much. Painting, for me personally, foremost arises from an undeniable necessity and inexplicable urge. I'm not doing this as a conscious choice
