Colour - Luminosity - Geometry

I create luminous geometric abstracts through a distinctive paper-inlay technique—a slow, meditative process where hundreds of hand-cut shapes are precisely inlaid to build each composition.

​

Every piece begins with painting watercolour papers in graduated tones. I then hand-cut geometric forms, selecting each for its exact colour and tonal quality, and inlay them to create work with unusual depth and optical vibration.

 

Some pieces, like Kusama, involve hundreds of individual elements; others explore bold, simplified geometry, using gradation of tones to create form.

​

The technique bridges contemporary art and skilled traditional craft—celebrating patience, precision, and the transformative power of colour and light.
