My work begins from a simple idea: painting is a place where something appears. I never know in advance what that “something” will be. Sometimes it’s a gesture, sometimes a color, sometimes a tension between two planes. I paint to accompany that process of emergence, not to control it. The image is not a result but a state. I work through layers, interruptions, and shifts.

I’m interested in the friction between what arises intuitively and what demands a conscious decision. In my diptychs, that friction becomes a dialogue: two surfaces that need each other to complete the same breath. I’m not looking for pure abstraction or for a heroic gesture.

I’m drawn to painting as an intimate space, where matter holds traces of something that cannot be said in words. I understand the image as an open system: a territory where chaos and structure, memory and accident, intuition and form coexist. I paint to sustain that space of uncertainty, to allow the image to breathe before it settles. I paint to listen to what painting has to say.
