Oil on Stretched Canvas 460 x 355 mm 2024

This artwork depicts a surreal, dreamlike composition where multiple cat heads and elongated necks intertwine and emerge from a single base resembling a human figure. The cats’ faces vary in tone and expression, rendered in shades of black and gray through fine stippling or textured shading. The organic, flowing forms create a sense of movement and unity, blending the familiar features of cats with an abstract, almost botanical structure. The piece evokes themes of transformation, multiplicity, and the merging of human and animal forms.

Inner Thoughts is a minefield of fragements of meaning. Scattered, explosive markings on a dark canvas perplex our understanding of its shattered messages. I think it reads: Torn and faded memories, broken promises, emotional breakdowns, dusty and abandoned dreams, unwelcome invasions of world views, worn out excuses, recipes for disaster, and misfiled facts and figures. One of a series of works from LOST in TRANSLATION

I’m loving the tones of Jacaranda Pods. Seeds themselves are, for me, the ultimate vessel for life.
