I reclaim painting as an ever-burning language: restless, contemporary, and quietly subversive. Through artisanal techniques and visual codes, I try to reconcile the handmade with the digital. My practice revolves around portraiture understood as a field of identity construction between cultural patterns and psychological fractures. I am interested in the tension between what is unique and what is serial, between the faces we inherit and the ones we fabricate. My imagery moves between the sacred and the absurd, where Orthodox icons, advertisements and pixels overlap. Behind the bright palettes and playful surfaces, there is always a dissonance, a tragic undertone. Each portrait is a mirror of me or of the world I see, wearing the laughter that makes everything make sense.
