Essence & Life Cannot Be Seen, 2024

The work turns toward what hovers at thresholds: dusk, womb, placenta, residue, container, sound, veil. The paintings emerge through somatic listening and through dreams and dialogues with psyche. Each mark seeks contact with pressing invisibility; a psychic field that moves through body and breath as much as image.

Wombs and foetal curves, traces of placenta, threads of sound, embers scattered too close to cloth, tar water in a tray, a trench dug around thought, painters living inside the paintings, calling me through the veil.

Pink lines hold distance between forms that lean close. Yellow loops spark from below, threading what cannot meet. White orbs cross silent terrain. Fire warns against neglect, black matter proves itself as prima materia.
