The Reflection series.
This is a series of work investigates the abstract qualities of reality through fluid and organic shapes.
I have always been drawn to water reflections, but I hadn’t made an attempt at painting them. Living in a world full of squares and boxes, I am constantly looking for interesting organic shapes, bridging the gap between real and abstract.
Looking into the etymology of the world ‘reflection’ (because I love doing that) I find it very intriguing how it simultaneously means'“the throwing back of light, heat, or sound without absorbing it” and “serious thought or consideration”.
Thinking about art as a reflection of the individual and of society perfectly fits both definitions. Personally, this series is a reflection of my desire to explore the abstract aspect of reality. The momentary. I want to capture movement in a still image. Quite paradoxical yet not unachievable.

Movement and flow are something I always consider when designing a piece of art. In this series, the difference is that movement and flow have become the central theme.
