"I try to reduce compositions to the basic forms appearing as aura, energy field, or an after-image rather than a certain object or space. What we see is part of a perceptual game in which something is simultaneously revealed (in shapes and forms, sometimes resembling common objects) and hidden from sight in sequences of colorful spots and blurry contours. Areas seem to be in constant flow, stratifying and emerging as something beyond the two-dimensional space of the canvas, caught in a moment of transformation or the emanation itself. Solar and lunar forms, primal symbols of traditional cultures, sometimes emerge, indicating the atavisms, impressions, and mental states mutual to all, regardless of the experience, knowledge, or contexts that shape our sensitivity. It might seem that what we observe are only representations of a reality that cannot be fully expressed in the form of a painting. We can try to get close to it by individual contemplation or assume that what we see is only one of many possible approaches to a form whose main principles are fluctuation and flow of energy."
