The base composition for these paintings appeared to me one morning in that state between sleep and wake. The image recalls in me the feeling of the transient nature of human life and our relationships. Hovering between representation and abstractions, these works borrow freely from some of my main influences, in particular from manga, psychedelic posters and formalist painting.
