‘The poetics of space’ revolves around the continuous construction and deconstruction of space—an exploration of how physical environments and mental landscapes intersect, shift, and reconfigure. Drawing from my architectural background, I engage with the materiality of painting to evoke the fluidity of space, memory, and time. Like architecture, my painting is not meant to be a representation but an environment that invite the viewer to experience them as places.
I am drawn to work in large-scale, often choosing sites of decay to work—ruins, abandoned construction zones, and overlooked areas of urban centers. These spaces, marked by history and impermanence, influence both the materials I use and the atmosphere I create. Raw canvas, layered paint, found objects, and photographs become integral to the work, their textures and fragments imbued with the traces of lived experience. Many pieces in this collection I’m developing began with photographs of urban sites that have been abstracted to the point where the sense of place outweighs the literal representation, evoking a more permanent, emotional connection to the space. This one however was born out of the need to create a space with solid colours and with empty negative spaces, in the simplest forms and hues and some minimal lines.
Ultimately, recently through painting I have been finding a space for reflection—a realm where meaning is not fixed, but constantly evolving. Just as the built environments we inhabit shape us, the current body of work in progress invites the viewer into a space that is not fully defined, one that shifts and transforms through engagement. In this process, I aim to construct painted realms for dialogue—not only between the viewer and the work, but also between the work and the world, where meaning becomes fluid, shifting as the work interacts with its context, in an ongoing negotiation between perception, experience, and space.
