Sometimes, you need a different language to say what you mean. For me, these abstract paintings are that language. They are my way of exploring the things we all feel but can’t always put into words: compassion, vulnerability, and the constant pull between our inner lives and the world outside.

Instead of painting a specific scene, I’m trying to paint the feeling itself. Each canvas is an emotional landscape, using colour and texture to map a moment of strength, a quiet thought, or the raw feeling of connection. They are about the gestures that show we care and the invisible lines that unite us.

I’ve worked on this series for years, across all the cities I’ve called home. They are not planned. They are the most direct work I do. This is what happens when ideas flow straight from my mind to the canvas, with no filter in between.
