Art as a part of my self-development. Picasso once said “learn the rules like a pro, so you can break them like an artist” and I always kept this in mind. I first started my practice with realism, classical forms and compositions focused on following the rules of beauty and harmony. As time passed, I started breaking off from the structure through surrealism, eventually evolving onto simpler, more abstract forms. A conceptual approach has always been present, every piece that goes through my hands has a very deep meaning.

​

One of the greatest lessons I learned from my painting Master was the concept of light. The source of life! And, as a typical philosophical and ever learning Sagittarian, this coincided with the seed of my spiritual quest. Creating art has been a trusted companion on my journey of self-awareness and existentialism. Experimenting with different mediums has taught me that, as I express myself visually, I further discover myself.

​

My work always revolves around the understanding of the self, comprised of several stages. From tales of identity and freedom, to pieces communicating the idea of beauty in the world as a reflection of the inner-self; sexuality and spirituality as two seemingly different concepts, but of the same essence, being desire an expression of love - the transcendental within the physical. My current path is exploring how "everything is one", just like light is wave and particle simultaneously, so is everything else. Everything behaves in waves - the earth breathes in seasons, human emotions and hormones also have their cycles, even the financial markets do. 

​

Art evokes powerful emotions, reaching humans where other avenues may not. My hope is to stimulate the subconscious, challenge taboos, inspire some self-awareness and do my part in raising the vibes of this world.

​

I specialize in contemporary fine art. It is expressive, surreal and full of light.
