I paint images from my daily routine and animate them to make viewers
experience my work. In doing so, I attempt to understand how the brain reality
even overrides the objective reality, emphasizing its metaphysical aspects. I
keep realizing my relationship with objects on multiple levels, which
supports the idea of existentialism. I animate
all those spaces where I have spent time in, pertaining to the
complexity of simple objects, eloquent in nature and existing on their own. Y
work is usually tech-based and animation. I make moving paintings and work with
projection on my oil paintings. I paint objects based on the dubious efficacy of
reality and itself being radically contingent. I just try to work with metaphors in
relation to internal and external existential phenomena, by the vision of the
mind, depicting my introversion.
While creating an environment, an installation, a mood, a say, or a work of art,
I endeavor to translate my imagination into reality the reality I see. I also render creatures,
that reflect my persona and behold questions about conventions. There are
no answers. Just more questions, encompassing different aspects of empirical reality.
The installations I make, remind me of my relationship with myself, the objects
surrounding me, and the meaning they attach to an individual being, without
them knowing. Needless to say, I focus on my personal turned transpersonal
experiences, in relation to the practicality of life through my work.
