About the Artist

From 1999 through 2005 my work became sculptural and three dimensional with innovative materials incorporated, such as neon lights, LED, and fluorescent lights.
In 2005 I started to work with a new technique using roller and spray paint allowing me to overlay color of washes and bringing out their pure vibrancy.
Incorporating line and geometry, and manipulating the sense of light to the point of creating an environment are the most important elements of my work.

Spectrum Wall Installation

2009
Oil on Mylar
605cm x 302.5cm

Spectrum Wall Installation
This installation is painted on individual Mylar panels (6 panel per row, each 40 x 40 inch) with vibrant colors in order to create an oscillation and at the same time to give an illusion of three dimensions. The color shift in the middle row gives the illusion of the section protruding out from the wall.

Inaccessible Space Installation

2007
Oil on Mylar
406.4 x 406.4 cm

“Inaccessible Space” installation is creating a feeling of a three-dimensional space by using two-dimensional geometry lines. The actual three-dimensional space becomes more powerful by limitation of the flat space and by manipulating and creating an oscillation that provides the feeling of a physical sensation.

Don't ask me why

2008
Oil on Mylar
adaptable to wall space

This installation was painted on individual Mylar panels in four colors with very subtle tonal changes. Each panel is 16 inches high and varies in length. The purpose of using multiple panels was to have flexibility to arrange the panels in different designs and adapt the installation to any wall. In these images the panels are laid out over two walls and the colors are arranged to create a vibration and to give a sense of dimension to the flat space.
