My works start from mundane desires, emerging from the unknown; where every square on a canvas becomes a magic chamber – full of moving/floating images, constructing an artificial, perfect and timeless world which is more ‘real’ than reality seems to be.
Before starting every work, I witness a blank space – spaces that are vacant and perpetually present but conceptually absent. The mind game starts from that point – a game of filling and refilling the void leading to a journey – a way into myself.
Reality is altered by altering the reality of an existing image by replacing it in a different surrounding, initiating a journey back into the memory lane. Theseendless dreams are casted over the mindscape, engendering uncanny feelings of displacement that haunts the mind and body.
Devoid of fixed meanings, my work allows everybody to weave a story as they like from a kaleidoscope of images. Every image is taken from a different story/situation; viewed separately in different contexts where each can have different interpretations from the way they are, when experienced together in my work.
Sometimes the mind is aware of the unspoken and the unseen as it consciously and unconsciously engages with the fragile surroundings/information where itsplits intonarratives. This aura of uncertainty/unquestioned part of our environment/emptiness creates mysterious relationships where the unknown emptiness triggers memory.
Absurd monologues can then, provoke individual sensibilities and experiences, obsessing oneself with displaced images/enigmatic logic.Thus, voicing an attempt to smoothenthe memory, which is freed from details and specific stories and where, fragmentation can become a picture that extends into space.
