Artist Statement

My work is rooted in pareidolia: the human tendency to perceive faces, figures, and beings within abstract forms. In my paintings these images appear, disappear, transform, or remain hidden entirely. What someone sees depends entirely on their own perspective — and that is exactly what my work explores.

I combine classical painting techniques with digital processes. The mirror plays a central role in this. By mirroring one half of a painting and merging it with its counterpart, a new whole emerges. In this way I transform duality — left and right, light and dark, upright and inverted — into unity. The two halves are no longer opposites but become complementary elements that together create a new being, a new form, or a new meaning.

I first used the mirror out of practical necessity: I couldn’t draw the way I wanted to, yet I felt a strong urge to create. Symmetry offered me a way to build new worlds regardless. Over time, this evolved into a deliberate artistic method — a way to investigate perspective, interpretation, and the collaboration between opposites.

My work invites the viewer to keep looking, to tilt, to reinterpret. Like a painting hung halfway up a staircase, it looks different from above than from below, yet both views are equally true. Or like a tree that appears completely different depending on where you stand.

Everyone sees something different — and every interpretation is valid.
