Spiritual Fossils - Preservation of the Universe, Time and Energy

Spiritual Fossils - Preservation of the Universe, Time and Energy​

My practice revolves around the metaphor of "encapsulation and representation," employing a unique mixed media approach to transform individual emotions, societal dynamics, and intangible cosmic forces into paintings with textured surfaces reminiscent of rugged rock formations. Drawing inspiration from nature’s ability to preserve fossils, I seek to construct a visual language that encapsulates energy, memory, and time, exploring the cyclical process of "deconstruction and reconstruction" within the human spirit. Much like fossils that encapsulate energy and emotion, my paintings are preserved and continuously reinterpreted, revealing profound connections between the cosmos, life, and human nature.

My work delves into fragility, sensitivity, and the duality of destruction and restoration, reflecting the contradictions and anxieties within the human psyche. By skillfully merging the fluidity of Eastern ink painting with the tension of Western abstract expressionism, my paintings carry profound philosophical and emotional depth, extending into the relationships between time, emotion, energy, and the universe. My work conveys the irreversibility of the past, the intuition of the present, and the uncertainty of the future. Often drawing inspiration from Eastern religions, cultural fusion, and personal experiences, I continuously explore the essence of life.

My artistic practice is closely related to Pintura Matèrica, incorporating architectural materials such as plaster, clay, concrete, sand, soil, and adhesives to prime the canvas. By embedding ancient fossils and mother-of-pearl, I emphasize texture and stone-like traces, imbuing the artwork with physicality and material presence. These materials themselves become the subject, evoking a sense of weight, density, and existence. Their raw, organic nature stirs a mysterious resonance and emotional connection, as if emerging from a distant time and space. Through this process, I seek to reveal the invisible bond between natural substances and humanity. My work connects the most humble materials with the intangible, metaphysical world, elevating them to a ritualistic and spiritual level.
