About this artwork
Blue Vortex originated from a demonstration piece in my Artist's Process Series. The idea first developed during a live demonstration, which I then carefully refined in my studio and completed into an independent work of art.
The central element is a modeled knitted fabric that spirals out from the picture plane and is embedded in a painterly space with translucent layers of paint in various shades of blue and turquoise. The three-dimensional textile… structure enters into a dialogue with the painting, blurring the boundaries between surface and sculpture.
Light, movement, and depth change depending on the viewing angle. The final coat of varnish intensifies the colors and highlights the relief-like surface. The work invites viewers to discover associations between cosmic forms, water vortices, and organic growth, without prescribing a single, definitive interpretation.
It is a unique piece.

My artist statement
I am a visual artist and explore change as a fundamental principle of life. In my work, I combine painting, textiles, and relief to create multi-layered, sculptural surfaces that respond to light, perspective, and movement. Layers, transparencies, patina, sheen, and textile structures allow color, depth, and mood to appear ever-changing, reflecting traces of growth, development, decay, and transience. I am not interested in capturing a state, but rather in its mutability—and the possibility of making this mutability sensually perceptible. My works invite viewers to shift their perspective, to engage with the unusual, and to continually discover something new within them.
