I place the spectator in the role of an actor, transforming them from a character into a person. The faces in my paintings often reflect a reprobatory attitude toward human actions, as I aim to situate the characters within the context rather than letting the context define them. My background in architecture, music, and visual arts has shaped my approach, as I find common ground in concepts like space, volume, harmony, time, and form. Through my work, I explore the “human scale” and the tension between reality and the imagined, questioning whether we navigate life, art, or something in between.
