My artistic practice was influenced by three factors: Abstract
Expressionism, Shapes and Patterns. My work explores the use of geometric or biomorphic shapes and strong colours, characterized by dense and unexpected structures with a conviction to intense build up and obscuration through patterning. There is a compelling tension between the trace of my brush
strokes with the materiality of the paint itself. Finally, my asymmetric distribution of colour with distinct accents makes it rich chromatically in which an order is animated by the disorder. I mostly express feelings through my paintings rather than illustrate them. I let myself go. I thought little of houses and trees, but applied colour stripes and spots to the canvas.
