about
I love making places more beautiful. I like to bring an artwork to a space and watch how the environment becomes more alive and inspiring. As an artist and a jewelry designer I am interested in contemporary art and I am inspired by color or unusual materials.
|
I believe that original art can bring a new energy, invigorate and enhance any space...Many times when I am inspired by a place, architecture or science, I create a site specific art installation.
Select the right artwork for your space.

My passion for improving work environment led me to collaborate with architects to create more innovative and stimulating work spaces while working at one of the most amazing buildings in the area, AstraZeneca, a pharmaceutical company located in Waltham. As a Head of the Art committee I was responsible for artwork selection for the site.

I like to explore, invent, discover the new and unknown and then share it...I would like people to be absorbed by the painting, capture their attention, while creating a new experience for them.
“The idea for a piece comes from an accumulation of my own world and life experiences at that certain moment. Color attracts me, I thinks of color as energy and a trigger for a series of physiochemical reactions in humans that results in certain sensations.
I like to experiment with techniques as well as materials like wood, stone, concrete, or metal. Somehow all these things get processed through me and I reflect on it in an abstract way. I was always an abstract artist, I think it gives me the freedom to express myself.
Wassily Kandinsky, one of the forefathers of abstract art believed that "abstraction was the pictorial language of the future, that it communicated truth about the human spirit." I truly believe it.
I have been influenced by modern art, design, architecture, travel, beauty and even fashion. First, I learned about abstract expressionist, then was influence by minimalism. I enjoy works of many artists especially Lee Krasner, Helen Frankenthaler, Joan Mitchell, Willem de Kooning, Donald Judd, Richard Sierra, Tony Smith, Yves Kline, Ellsworth Kelly, Sol Levitt, Mark Rothko, Trevor Bell, Gerhard Richter, and many more.

Painting process is a perpetual communication with myself. Looking at my own work after having completed it, is like looking into a mirror and understanding how I really feel deep inside. There is nothing I can hide from myself then.
There is always a direct connection between colors, compositions, marks and gestures of a painting and my emotional state of mind while I’m working on it. There are people who can read their own story in their diaries. I can look at my own life journey by looking at my paintings.
I am not interested into painting something that already exists. My pressing urge is to use paint to explore new forms and colors which will ultimately carry emotional weight. I try not to recreate an image. Instead, I may use it as a reference point by which to move from one painting to the next.
