2024
Each painting conveys a sense of uneasy balance, driven to a moment of turbulence beyond their physical delimitations. This increase in energy, held in check, seems fixed in a precarious equilibrium, evoking a liminal state where the paintings teeter on the verge of explosion or inward collapse.
