Concept
I’m interested in the idea that “parts create the whole.”
On the canvas, events that are repeatedly generated through overlapping layers of paint unfold like a chain reaction, carrying an element of chance as they gradually permeate the entire surface. Just as a series of events generates a single form, I believe that within the space of a painting, there exists a structure that emerges between chance and choice.
I paint while observing the traces and phenomena that occur on the surface, and in doing so I explore the relationships between things.
