Missed Call is a collection built around the tension of silence, not just silence itself, but the impossibility of breaking it. Each work feels like a message sent but never received, a gesture left hanging.
Using a raw, physical painting style, with knives, wide brushes, layered textures, and adhesive tape, the artist creates works that are urgent, tactile, and emotionally charged. The palette is limited, intensifying the drama and unifying the series emotionally rather than aesthetically.
Titles like Salt in My Wounds, I Did Not Deserve This and You Knew It Too, or Perfect Victims suggest themes of rupture, longing, and failed connection. The recurring idea of the “Missed Call” becomes a metaphor for failed attempts to reach out, to speak, to be heard.
