The artist begins the concept of each work with a selection of mental images and pictures from magazines and news. By putting together these images, the artist transforms and changes their shape in the process of performing the works. Thus, it disrupts the order and discipline of the elements, creating a new harmony and orderliness between them. The starting and ending points of each story in the paintings are unclear and develop in the labyrinth of the viewer’s consciousness. The artist seems to lure the viewer into the trap of intertwined narratives and endless research.
