STATEMENT
in space of the past and present I have questioned the undeniable fact of
spirituality in which our celestial put us in .The question in which we ask every
seconds, with fallacies and assumed answers fall short the cliff .what fascinate
me is that I come with preconception and openness to unseal the questions
ravinging our soul that haven’t been brought to justice by using my medium to
create a template and ground for my expressionism through the canvass. I want
the viewer to see deeply the movement of colours and design as the content and
question of my painting with the ever captivating and capturing lines with Uli
design and all other design embedded in my expressionism. It’s my goal in
painting to document questions and fallacies that human find mysterious .to
take simple concept be it a spiritualist or a scientist they all ask questions too.
My painting are meant to be a reflection of our daily life ,step by step ,to and fro
on thing that are beyond every human capability born of a woman .I explore life
circle and expressionism, we live in a world full of questions and less answer, I
create a frame and argue that my expressionism image is even more
representational of life because it contain the ever flaming questions and
thinking boiling in their soul ,I want to explore the depth and mind of the
inumendo and crescendo of our soul in this expression painting .the imagery
crux in my painting is portraiture also capturing and transporting the emotions
of the face as an element of my expression in my painting.
The beginning of spirituality ends and lies in the lightness and darkness that
may diminish or increase with the display of our own temperament.
