StatementMy work is rooted in the language of the script. Over the years, I have used script as a king of sign that reflects experience. Of course the script reveals different meanings to different people, and I think over time painting is also a kind of writing. The manner in which I use the script over colour, sometimes floating, sometimes submerged all seem to echo the seen and the unseen. I believe that the desire to articulate comes unconsciously. When I create I don't think about the stimulus or the result but the movement of associations through inner and outer spaces gives me the power to communicate onto the canvas.
