About this artwork
C Art Series — What Do You C
The human eye is a gateway to the world around us.
When it opens, light enters, and the images we encounter are processed in the brain, gradually assembling what we call reality. Yet this reality is never identical from one person to another. It is shaped by history, culture, geography, education, memory, season, gender, and countless other variables. The same apple can provoke a thousand different perceptions.
The C… Art Series explores this shifting nature of perception through my FLY method. This creative practice exists in the dynamic dialogue between deliberate action and the unexpected merging of materials.
Rather than imposing a fixed composition, I create conditions. Within these conditions, matter, gravity, oxidation, friction, and time interact. Contradicting materials meet, resist, merge, and transform. The painting evolves through emergence rather than strict control.
The surface of each work carries traces of this evolution.

« The physical body ends in the skin, the mind reaches the stars. »
My practice is rooted in material investigation, where the artwork becomes a site of layered processes unfolding over time.
At the core of my work is industrial cold tar— carrying geological memory. Tar absorbs light, slows movement, and resists clarity, introducing friction into the visual field. When combined with oil, gesso, and pigment, it generates a continuous negotiation between opacity and luminosity, between what is buried and what is revealed.
These dense, absorptive surfaces function as active fields—capable of retaining, resisting, and transforming the materials brought into contact with them. Each work evolves through sequences of action and reaction, of revealing and concealing. The surface becomes an archive of gestures, material events, and temporal shifts.
Central to my work is the notion of layering as a structural condition. Each painting develops through successive strata of material interactions: absorption, oxidation, sedimentation, and reactivation.
