About this artwork
Each work in the C art series holds a delicate equilibrium between structure and unpredictability. What appears on the canvas is neither purely intentional nor purely accidental. It is the visible trace of a dialogue between the artist’s vision and the autonomous behaviour of co
We are but short-term visitors to Planet Earth. After our physical bodies terminate their function, the human software—the spirit—moves on to another realm. I tried to depict… those ideas in my art.
In this artwork, I dove deep into the visceral textures and raw emotion in this piece using acrylic, oil, and tar. The painting pulls one into an abstract realm—drips and splashes across a fiery palette of reds, blacks, and hints of yellow evoke an intense, almost primal response. It's about exploring the depth of human experience, the complexity of our struggles, and the beauty that emerges from chaos. I aimed to capture the energy of transformation, making it a vibrant yet contemplative centrepiece for any space.

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.
