And my search ended in 2009. The first work was born, which determined my creative direction in drawing to this day. It was like taking off my clothes and seeing the naked truth of my desires and feelings.
A new serious creative breakthrough occurred in 2017. Being in a strong emotional crisis, I created about 40 paintings in a short period of time. For days on end, I sat in a makeshift workshop with cardboard and my hands covered in paint. Without stopping, I drew myself-the reflection in the mirror was my object.
Hard and heavy graphic lines with colored acrylic, jagged contours, eye-cutting combination of colors and constrained, broken poses, no compositional rules. "Pain, aggression, struggle, fear" is the message that the viewer reads in the works of this period.
Every year, the message of the works and their style change with me. Now my work is more about freedom and enjoying yourself and your surroundings. Having gone through my own path of therapy through the image of myself, I can do similar things.
