FEBRUARY 23RD – MARCH 25TH

Impossible Object Paintings

All objects have their own source of light. Looking for objects without prejudice. A vase, flowers on a table are represented in the still life compositions. I capture the Bio-rhythms of these flowers through digital sound recording and digital animation. I am able to create movement within the digitally captured sounds and gestures that are the foundations of these paintings, which are printed on canvas. Which reproduces formal interpretations through a rigorous layering of painting techniques, including hand-painting.

With this series of paintings, sounds can be visualized, colors from sound spectrum, electromagnetic waves brought from organic forms, and light moving at different speeds. This is with the aim of learning about the way our brain interprets color and its possibilities. This offers an aesthetic research of the movement of light in painting.

As simply as possible, I present the meaning of life and death dancing in this series. It is a Vase of flowers whose beauty unfolds slowly to an end. There is a universal truth that comes from an intimate point of view.
