Description

In the landscape art ˜Water keeper", a lone figure stands in a vast, arid desert landscape, his gaze fixed on an old, rusty water tower. The setting is harsh, with dry, thin grass only just surviving the relentless sun. The man stands as if carrying the weight of the world's water crisis on his shoulders. The background is a mix of light blue and green tones with squares like an old sheet of tartan paper. Seagulls hover, a strange but hopeful presence in the otherwise desolate scene. Across this background are blurred tables with letters and numbers, representing calculations and scientific efforts to deal with the severe drought. These symbols of human ingenuity and problem-solving highlight the urgent need for innovative solutions to the problem of water scarcity. "Water keeper" captures a critical moment of reflection and determination and highlights the role of an individual in a wider struggle. The painting serves as a poignant reminder of the ongoing struggle against environmental challenges and the tireless human spirit that strives to overcome them.

Presentation

Mixed media / collage artist. I assemble original photography, assorted papers, acrylics, oil, charcoal, ink, and pencil in my works. The variety of resources I am able to use has proved indispensable to me. The preparing labor shows through in my collages; layer upon layer of material remains visible in the finished pieces. 

I believe my body of work is characterized by my skill for reinvention. Having always loved the appearance of weathered walls plastered with peeling paint and old posters, I revive this aesthetic with hopefully a keen and professional eye. The creative objective of my work is to “make something beautiful out of dilapidation." 

My tableaus explore the dissonance between old and new materials, intertwined in the most beautiful way possible to create dreamlike and melancholy images.
