Artist Statement
My work primarily examines the relationship between the body and constructed space. Figures are pared down, treated as structural elements within the composition rather than portraits. Identity is secondary to posture, weight, and placement. Chairs, walls, and architectural divisions function as organizing systems. They establish geometry, containment, and proximity, shaping how figures relate to one another. The spaces are compressed and flattened, emphasizing surface and color over depth. This flattening resists narrative resolution and instead foregrounds arrangement — who sits, who leans, who remains. Color operates atmospherically rather than descriptively. Large fields create psychological conditions that oscillate between intimacy and distance, stability and imbalance. These paintings propose the interior not as setting, but as structure — a framework within which presence, tension, and quiet coexist.

Below are several recent examples.
