About Me
“Feelings are the bargaining chips of time”
“Technique and Execution”
My paintings are created using oil painting techniques, which allows me to delve deeper into the texture and color saturation of each element. Oil enables me to convey subtle gradients, creating smooth transitions between light and shadow, adding volume and depth to the works. Textured brushstrokes help focus attention on details, giving scenes expressiveness and layering. In some pieces, I use thick, powerful strokes to convey emotional tension; in others, smoother and softer strokes to evoke an atmosphere of tranquility or contemplation.
The use of contrasts between warm and cool tones helps emphasize internal conflict or dynamics, while blurred, chaotic brushstrokes often serve to create an effect of movement and uncertainty, enhancing the atmosphere of mysticism or inner struggle. Oil paints allow me to play with texture, highlighting both the foreground and background, thus creating harmony between the visual complexity and the philosophical depth of the work.
From an early age, art became a means for me to express what words couldn’t always convey. I grew up surrounded by people who sought simplicity but often faced deep internal contradictions. Observing the world around me and people’s inner struggles left a profound mark on my creative journey.
My paintings are inextricably linked to the search for meaning in every moment of life—in suffering, liberation, struggle, and humility. Each work, whether it’s “The Shadow of Faith” or “Cycle of Rebirth,” explores themes of transformation, internal crisis, and the crossing of boundaries between the visible and the invisible. I use oil painting techniques because they allow me to convey textured, rich layers that add depth to every symbol and image.
Lead spheres with tooth marks, hands clutching a heavy burden, figures immersed in shadow—all these are not just visual elements. They are metaphors for the internal conflicts we all experience. My art reflects moments when a person’s soul is under pressure from external and internal forces but continues to seek a way out, striving for light and liberation.
For me, art is not only a reflection of reality but also an attempt to delve deeper into human emotions, to create a dialogue with myself and the viewer who observes my works. Through my paintings, I strive to ask questions about life and death, about faith and doubt, about how we can find our place in this world despite all its complexity and uncertainty.
1. “On the Threshold of Transformation”
Description:
This image depicts two nude figures—a man and a woman—who seem entwined in a choreography of passion and struggle. Their bodies, dynamic and expressive, convey the tension between transformation and resistance. The man, whose face is hidden, symbolizes strength and power, but the woman, despite her apparent vulnerability, reflects inner strength and defiance. The painting captures the moment of transition from destruction to creation—a moment of personal transformation.
Medium: Oil on canvas
Main themes: Transformation, struggle, human relationships
2. “Echo of Convergence”
Description:
The painting portrays internal conflict and the merging of two personalities. The faces of a man and a woman are superimposed, symbolizing the loss of individuality and the collision of the inner world with external expectations. Greenish hues on the woman’s face hint at internal illness or decay, while the dark tones of the man emphasize emotional aggression and passion. This complex composition explores themes of dependency, identity fusion, and personal crisis.

Main themes: Merging identities, inner conflict, emotional relationships
3. “Shadow of Faith”
Description:
This painting depicts two nuns in a state of spiritual and emotional crisis. One of them, with an open mouth, conveys a sense of inner suffering and mental breakdown, while the other is immersed in detachment and inactivity. Their black habits symbolize the oppressive weight of faith, which no longer serves as a source of peace. The chaotic background intensifies the feeling of internal struggle and the loss of spiritual support.

4. “Guy, invisible Burden”
Description:
A viewer’s hand squeezes lead spheres covered with tooth imprints. These fragmented remnants symbolize the weight of emotional and physical trials that a person carries within. In the background, two figures appear—one sits, immersed in thoughts or perhaps already departed, while another peeks into the room, hinting at search and exploration. The painting invites reflection on the consequences of heavy decisions and how our past influences the present.
Medium: Oil on canvas
Main themes: Burden of the past, search for meaning, inner isolation
5. “Cycle of Rebirth”
Description:
The painting features a sphere emerging from water, symbolizing the eternal cycle of life and death. Inner vortices forming a semblance of a human skull hint at life’s fleeting nature and the inevitability of death, while also suggesting the endlessness of rebirth. Soft shades of blue and white underscore both the tranquility and the inherent threat emanating from nature and its cycles.
Medium: Oil on canvas
Main themes: Cycle of life and death, transformation, nature
6. “On the Edge of the World”
Description:
The man depicted stands on the brink between internal chaos and external reality. His hands reach forward in an attempt to grasp something elusive, his face distorted by despair. The dark background symbolizes isolation and a loss of control, emphasizing his struggle to preserve his identity. The painting explores human vulnerability and the search for grounding in a chaotic world.
Medium: Oil on canvas

7. “Distance of Future”
Description:
Two figures, one above the other, represent the interaction between the past and the future. They express humanity’s aspiration for the new and the struggle with what holds us in the present. The second figure, peering into the room, hints at the search for the unknown. Thick brushstrokes and dark tones add mystery and tension, creating an atmosphere of aspiration and exploration.
