My current body of work continues a process-driven engagement with large-scale abstract painting, material alchemy, and ecological transformation. These new works deepen my commitment to abstraction as a luminous space of resistance, where time, matter, and care coalesce into a dynamic visual language. Drawing on traditions of colour field painting and abstract expressionism, I am developing a material vocabulary that expands the expressive potential of surface, while embedding biological vitality and systemic change into the work itself.
Each painting evolves through cycles of layering, removal, and chemical activation. Materials such as spirulina, seaweed, hyaluronic acid, wax, sugar, mother of pearl, collagen, agar agar, Hybrid Tea rose petals, hot pink (ink), acrylic, shea butter, soap and salt initiate unpredictable processes—crystallisation, fermentation, evaporation—transforming the canvas into a metabolically active field. The surface becomes a living site of negotiation, one that resists finality and insists on slow time. These substances are collaborators with agency: they stain, rupture, and erode; they reveal structural vulnerability and ecological intelligence. Colour in this context is not applied—it emerges, seeps, and reacts. These are not composed images but cultivated ecosystems.
The work is situated at the intersection of material research, emotional resonance, and ecological awareness. Each painting is informed by an ontology of care: a choreography of attention, surrender, and co-creation. I am particularly drawn to how decay, porosity, and transformation serve as both metaphors and active forces in constructing meaning. Time is embedded and visible in the slow formation of stains, the collapse of surfaces, and the migration of colour.
