My work is an investigation into material abstraction, where the canvas functions as a physical site of tension between structural rigor and gestural freedom. Utilizing modelling pastes, spatulas, and combs, I build rhythmic, grooved textures that transform the flat surface into a high-relief landscape. These structured foundations represent a search for order, which I subsequently challenge through instinctive overlays and energetic dripping. The core of my practice lies in the interplay between light and depth. The physical ridges created by my tools capture shifting shadows, making the artwork change depending on the viewer’s perspective. By stripping away the superfluous, I focus on the physical presence of the medium.
