My show “Ink on Paper” is a journey that is intensely personal yet universally appealing. The outcome is not a simple instance of spontaneous expression, if offers a significance more penetrating and more than something intensely personal. It instigates an awareness of an area of existence that is intangible but as immediate and perceptible as a landscape.
My expressions reverberate with qualities of mood that are impersonal and essentially human, that are aspects of a shared interior landscape of our inner life in distributions of simple ink which requires not to be thought over and speculated about, but sensed intuitively. I have tried to purify the inward tone, the inflected atmosphere of consciousness, which evades all rational analysis, or rationalist interpretation. Sometimes the beauty and lyrical quality of the work is overshadowed as the observer unravels the visual complexities involved in the abstract depiction of space. Dimension always exists in abstraction, no matter how it may be concealed. My endeavour is precisely to catch this dimension in my work: “Ink on Paper”
