"I like to imagine that I filter the world through these intricate webs of pulsating colours I've
conjured in my mind"

"My process is always driven by some or the other kind of research and ingrown sensitivity to certain contemporary and historical/mythological narratives. Often times, journalistic photographs or Renaissance imagery portraying body’s relationships with events, spaces, objects and other bodies are interesting reference points to develop paintings that act as speculative tools."

"The idea of ‘home’ and its domesticity being a container of histories, anxieties, subconscious projections and hopes can make way for the sublime or mystical to enter and heal what may be broken or wounded. This for me serves are the foundation of my practice."

"I always try to ‘step into’ the space as well as into the characters and then look and move around. I think it’s easier to imagine a watering can inside that empties itself out on a growing plant that is basically the work of art you make. I know when a work is done when it feels as though the can has been emptied out and the plant is satiated enough to not need hydration anymore."
