I draw and paint with ink, oil and acrylics on canvas and
paper. My work begins with a personal admission that
vulnerability is a part of life. I am fascinated by those
overwhelming moments such as agitation, thrill and
confusion. That often affects one’s perception and
makes a stale scene turn into a dramatic incident

My latest work is a series of black ink on canvas. I capture interesting elements from various
figures I observe in everyday life and form them into continuous lines or isolated silhouettes. I
carefully observe the relationship in between the coexist elements and develop the neutral
connection or intensive disconnection. The objects in monochrome enhance its shapes and stand
out sharply from negative spaces. It makes me aware of essential of beings.
During the creative process I untangle intricacies in my life and to reorganize disconcerted
concepts. I record experiences and unveil emotional realities by drawing
