Work:  

His artistic practice is rooted in the simplicity and primitive essence of art. Inspired by prehistoric art, carved stones, and cave paintings, he explores the human need to create and communicate through painting and sculpture. After training in sculpture, his perspective on painting shifted, integrating space and environment into his creative process. His work establishes a dialogue between the tangible and the imaginative, between the concrete and the poetic.

In a fast-paced world, he champions stillness and painting as a way to connect with the present. His interest lies not in the final result but in the process, where imperfection and chance play an essential role. Through painting, he finds a space for exploration and self-discovery—a vital exercise in constant reconstruction.
