Statement
My work explores what survives collapse.
I am not interested in spectacle or consolation. I am interested in
structure—what remains when identity fractures, when presence withdraws, when
the body is no longer the centre.
The surface is treated as tissue: stretched, ruptured, scarred and held
together. Forms appear to dissolve, yet something endures—architectural,
psychological, elemental.
These works are not portraits of people.
They are portraits of residue.
I work in the tension between containment and rupture, discipline and instinct.
The question remains:
What remains?
