My work today explores the metaphysical dimension of aesthetic experience. I create paintings that do not speak, but simply are. Where an image truly operates, it needs neither meaning nor intention, only presence.
In my paintings, windows structure the composition. They release the gaze from interpretation, dissolve the representative function, liberate the mind and open a deeply coordinated inner space.
Immersed in the work, the viewer does not forget the great, unanswered questions of existence, yet in the act of his concentrated perception, those questions lose their sharpness. Absence becomes a key to presence: the presence of the moment perceived, here and now. A place of mindful stillness, a place of trust.
