Arts Thread

My work investigates how widely recognizable icons and visual elements can be reconfigured into something more intimate and psychologically charged. By avoiding overt personal narratives, I emphasize the intensity of the motif itself, creating images that hover between the familiar and the uncertain. This experience of half-recognition—at once close and distant—is central to my practice. Structurally, I divide my work into two strands: oil paintings on canvas, and material-based objects using pumice stone and distemper on panel. I describe these as “images” and “objects.” Their dialogue generates a productive tension, which defines the core of my artistic approach, as shown in the master exhibition.
