My work is a confluence of the old and the new, a meeting point of what I understand of traditional art and what is considered contemporary. Sometimes my compositions bring forth ironic questions about today’s world with a tinge of humour or sometimes they present alluring paradoxes about the life we live today. My paintings are questions I hand over to the viewer; to think, to reflect and introspect.
