In my work, I explore the process of transforming reality. I am interested in the moment when the real world begins to shift into an image—when familiar structures dissolve and a new visual order emerges.

I do not perceive style as a fixed or closed category. Each subject calls for its own visual language, whether it is a realistic painting grounded in direct observation or an abstract geometric construction. What unites my work is the principle of composition through assembly. I deconstruct reality into individual elements and reconstruct it into my own visual structure.

My practice is rooted in the tradition of classical painting and in a strong emphasis on craftsmanship, drawing, light, space, and composition. Technical discipline, however, is never an end in itself. It is a means that allows me to transform reality, uncover its hidden layers, and create my own interpretation of the world.

The principles of origami and tangram play a significant role in my work. I do not regard them as decorative motifs but as systems of thought. Origami represents the transformation of a simple plane into space and symbolizes continuous change. Tangram explores the relationships between individual parts and the search for balance, where a new whole emerges from a limited number of basic elements.

I combine these geometric principles with traditional subjects such as landscape, the human figure, architecture, and still life. I am interested in the tension between illusion and construction, between what we recognize and what we recreate.

My inspiration comes from both personal experience and the realities of the contemporary world. My work touches on social and environmental issues, human relationships, intimate experiences, and philosophical questions. Each painting is a search for balance between order and emotion, between reality and imagination.

I see painting as a space of freedom, where reality can be re-examined and reimagined. I do not paint only what I see—I create my own way of seeing the world.
