Artist Statement
I am a multidisciplinary artist. I like to depict life from my own to people and things around me.
Any event is my inspiration for me. In my works, I like to represent the ideas and everyday life in abstract. My dream s and my thoughts are in my works. I dream about a clean world free of criminality, corruption, war, injustice…It’s the reason why in many of my paintings I show that message.
I like to cooperate with other artists especially upcoming artists because I like to discover the new talents and make them appear.
My artist philosophy: “Anything, anyone, anytime is an inspiration”
I keep pushing to make my dreams true.
