Title: Memories Tree

Year: 2020

Size: 25 x 33 cm

Technique: Mixed media on paper applied on canvas

Memories Tree reveals an abstract face emerging from fluid, organic forms created with black and white ink and acrylic. The features — eyes, nose, and mouth — arise naturally through the movement of pigments, merging seamlessly into a structure that also resembles the trunk of a tree.

This fusion between human and nature suggests a quiet interconnection, a remembrance of origins and growth. Drawn by the unpredictable behavior of liquid colors, I let the painting unfold without control, allowing forms to manifest on their own.

This process mirrors my approach to life — I don’t chase, I allow. I enhance what appears, embracing spontaneity as a path to truth and beauty.
