Currents of Uncertainty, 2026

    In every color, a reflection of life’s intersections.

    A series of 6 artworks depicting a life in transition.

    These six pieces reflect a love for colour, experimentation, and the many emotions that intersect in our lives. Using water-soluble ink pencils on watercolour paper, the colours are left to run freely—sometimes chaotic, always personal, always true.

    This collection marks a turning point in my artistic journey. I am still searching for my full voice as an artist. While I have defined my compositions and found a geometric structure, I have been experimenting wildly with colour. I went a little overboard with my colours, moving from limited palettes of just a couple of tones into a joyful chaos. Now I realize that balance lies somewhere in between. I aim to limit myself to a curated set of colours, ideally around half a dozen. These pieces are part of that exploration. Each is a step toward a clearer colour identity while still embracing the freedom I need to grow.

    Bottle at sea captures a solitary journey adrift in chaos. Amid swirling purple currents, a bottle drifts, carrying a fragile message. It mirrors my own personal quest, seeking connection, taking chances, and daring to just put myself out there, even when the path ahead is uncertain and the message might never arrive.

    Can you hear me?

    Can you hear me? captures the fragile act of reaching out. Voices ripple across space, layered and vibrant, searching for connection. Even amid distractions and noise, the message persists, delicate yet determined, as if passing through a veil before being received, like a whisper carrying across distance, reminding us that even when everything seems disconnected or we feel unseen, we are all connected.

    Fields of motion traces a dynamic flow where vivid colors ripple and collide like a landscape caught in turmoil. Each curve and shape reflects a search for balance, where every movement is both chaotic and full of possibility. On the distant horizon, the open sea offers a small window of calm, like a quiet breath after the rush, a reminder that serenity lies beyond the turbulence.

    Happy medium

    Happy medium is a celebration of unexpected harmony. The top half bursts with the warmth of summer, while the bottom whispers of winter’s chill. Rich blues and vibrant reds mingle throughout, creating tension and movement. This piece embraces contradiction, revealing happiness in the balance of opposites, where distance softens into contact, even in moments of uncertainty and doubt.

    Horizon unfolding opens onto a shifting landscape where light and color stretch beyond clear boundaries. Layers expand and dissolve, suggesting a path that is still forming. Within the chaos, a sense of direction emerges, fragile but real, reminding us that clarity unfolds over time and through openness to what lies ahead. This piece reflects the quiet tension between exploration and the desire for clarity.

    You were saying? explores curiosity and reflection, a moment suspended between words and intention. Subtle shades and textures trace the ebb and flow of understanding, revealing the tension and joy in trying to truly listen and respond. At the center, a small box quietly remains, a gentle, quiet anchor amid the surrounding messiness, a subtle reminder that clarity can still exist even in chaos.
