Patterns have their own rationale. When patterns emerge from chaos one can know things automatically, just by looking. I am working to clear my perception of all the biases about our place in the world. The Earth is not flat, not the center of the Solar System, not the only place with life, probably. Ours is a chaotic sensorial world and abstraction is my way to depict its essence.

I am interested in a kind of visual tuning. Some artworks are composed of the redrawn shapes of long text passages to form visual stories. Others are simple shapes drawn into complex harmonic concert. I use digital tools to render these ideas, working by hand without automation.

The very tools that can end our life on Earth instantly are the very tools which are revealing the depths of our true nature. It is an uncanny time to be alive, to have access to knowledge of the very large and the very small. Our bodies and minds have been altered with this knowledge. In the build up of details and patterns inside my pictures perhaps some of these perceptions are focused and expressed.
