(Art gallery, United States)My canvases are attempts to create emotional narratives with kinetic energy. They are conceptual in that I collage my landscapes using line as pixilation, textures, Glass tile and metal foils, in unconventional ways, to convey moments and subtle movements in nature. Not necessarily as nature appears but as nature feels: unspoken, indescribable and sometimes chaotic.
