Artist Statement
Through the border between the artist and the audience, I desire to depict the world both in visual and spiritual sense. In my belief, art was what drew me nearer to the world, yet helped me see it from a different eye. It was my passion from the very start to get involved with the world of Art and this passion has delivered me to pursue my journey as an artist.
I seek to create works that express the genuine me, the world, and its spiritual presence. Through these ideas, I continuously develop a relationship between colors, shapes, portions, ground and mediums. However, the physical elements are not the only relationships which have been bonded through this progress. The work itself and I, the space and energy and never-ending cycle of questions from the mind continues to build the art that I have built until now.
