In
my practice, I tend to simplify lines and express movements through them
.I
tend to draw in a naive childlike way using minimalist colours, lines and
compositions,
expressing humans I usually look forward to communicate with
(but
can't).
I
tend to experiment and try new ideas and new different perspectives in
looking
at things and in looking at myself, which results in changing the
way
of painting continuously.
Within
my painting I've changed language and materials in looking at faces,
bodies
and cities. Silence can connect them all. My work questions the
relationship
between humans and objects: how each of them reflects on the
other,
which can expose the gap between humans in communication.
My
inspiration comes from my society, a society with paradoxical complexes
existing
and shown in everyday life.
Warm
but silent faces, moving bodies but standing still, lonesome in big
cities.
