reality according to science and hinduism doesn t exist, we perceive and recreate a reality according to our physical and mental possibilities. Abstraction is nothing more than tryng to go beyound our limits by searching inside ourselves. Abstraction is nothing less than accepting our fears and limitations and exacerbate them. it is not good nor bad. either these 2 concepts don t exist in abstraction. there is only a good or bad painting due to whether the painting is sincere or not. the aim of an abstract painter is sincerity, a desire like the sophia for the philosophers. an aim a goal who will never totally reached but who cares the fun of pianting is making mistakes, and for me to get dirty with colours and destroy my clothes with oil paint and throw them away

'Abstract' and 'figurative' are not absolutes.

Everyone experiences and reacts to the inside and outside world differently. For me, one of the biggest challenges of art is freeing my mind from the straitjacket of convention.

Life is abstract,

Manifested 

Continuum 

Created 

Erased 

What I wait for is that force that impels me to make a mark without questioning its origin,

Originating from the within,

That is effected by multiple dimensions within and without 

Magic Manifestations again and again
