My practice explores form, rhythm, and spatial tension through minimal, gestural abstraction. Working primarily with charcoal, ink, and oil on paper or raw canvas, I focus on mark-making as a structural language — one that records pressure, repetition, and restraint.
The work emerges through an intuitive but disciplined process, where gesture is reduced to its essential elements. Black forms act as visual traces — interrupted, layered, and uneven — while surrounding white space functions as an active counterpoint, emphasizing pause, absence, and balance.
Influenced by post-war abstraction and minimalist traditions, my compositions investigate the relationship between structure and freedom, fragmentation and cohesion. Rather than depicting narrative, the work aims to create an atmosphere — inviting sustained looking and a heightened awareness of material, rhythm, and quiet tension.
