Exhibition information

The show brings together a body of paintings rooted in memory, landscape, silence, and traces left on the land.

The work moves around relic, threshold, burial, water, and presence. These paintings are more about making a space where something can be felt quietly but clearly.

Artist information

I grew up in a village surrounded by woods, cave marks, and streams, and those memories still shape how I paint.

The works come from real places and felt experiences: landscape, water, silence, and the traces people leave behind. I use earthy colour, texture, and simple forms to make paintings that feel quiet, open, and alive.
