Things I see in everyday life and memories they bring back. I want to capture them as they become entangled inside myself and transform into new images.
Sometimes even the most insignificant, momentary experiences turn into powerful imageries if their memories - even just pieces of them - linger on in mind long enough. Perhaps these are all fictitious imageries that derived out of reality but they often contain more truth than reality. For me, being more real than reality to be the single most important creative goal.
I strive to create a fantastic visual space by combining objectivity and my "reality," which is based on my visions and imagination. I am secretly hoping that something unexpected like a sign or an omen will appear in my work.
