For me, disconnection and penetration are associated with the concept of motion. Relationships between the existent and non-existent are forged; between the essence and the phenomenon. Disconnection may have negative associations (demolition, decay), but also positive ones (building, creating, composing). The concepts of connecting and disconnecting are complementary.
I made my degree pieces on metal sheet support. I was inspired by their shimmering, cold, vibrant nature, by their unpredictability. To some extent metal has brought three-dimensionality to the pieces, it lets the audience in its space, in the play of light, into its world. During creation of the pieces, I strived to show the light in the painting. In a way, use of metal let me capture it.
