Rooted in abstraction, her practice embraces the unfinished and the unstable as active forces within the work. Rather than resolving tension, the paintings expose it, allowing transformation to emerge through visibility rather than correction.
On my YouTube channel, I share long-form ambient videos composed of close-up details from my abstract paintings. These slow-moving visual sequences are created to be displayed on smart TVs, digital frames, or large screens, transforming everyday spaces into quiet visual fields.
Rather than presenting finished works, these videos focus on texture, gesture, and material in motion. Brush marks, layered surfaces, and residual traces unfold gradually, allowing the artwork to be experienced as atmosphere rather than image.
Art TV is conceived as a visual sanctuary, a way of bringing contemporary abstract art into living spaces without interruption, narration, or distraction. The videos are designed to loop seamlessly, offering a calm yet active presence that supports focus, reflection, and mindful living.
This channel invites viewers to discover my work through detail, duration, and repetition, offering an alternative way to engage with painting outside traditional exhibition formats.
