Poetry in Gold is the essence of my journey, both personal and artistic. It’s an album of memories, perceptions, pleasure and pain captured together from multiple dimensions. It is an interlocking of the various mediums I work with and an evolution of my timeless voyage as a true artist.

. When I listen to my quiet voice it connects me to a greater knowledge, it gives me an oasis of peace in the midst of chaos; brings balance and harmony; helps me to build inner strength and spread joy, timeless beauty and resilience through my art.

 My art offers me a way to express my deepest emotions, thoughts and life experiences. It allows me access and communicate stories that I would otherwise never tell. It’s almost like I have a creative treasure buried deep in my mind, a place I would not dare to touch or go to without my art.

Poetry in Gold is the essence of my journey, both personal and artistic. It’s an album of memories, perceptions, pleasure and pain captured together from multiple dimensions. It is an interlocking of the various mediums I work with and an evolution of my timeless voyage as a true artist. Life is a song, a passion, a symphony. Silence is the source of life.  My art offers me a way to express my deepest emotions, thoughts and life experiences. 

My art gives me the power to change the stories and rework the characters in any way that I want - a story of the survivor with the mysterious secret powers; a story of a warrior fighting to stay strong and inspire the world. I need that secret part of my mind to tell stories. When I go there it feels real and surreal at the same time. That treasure box holds those memories, forgotten chapters, uncharted images and unspoken words.

Silence, tranquillity and stillness make us realize who we really are. Silence the mind; make it quiet. Stop the chain of thoughts. At that moment, you enter into the present, either in full concentration or you start going inwards away from all the restless emotions. My art offers me a way to express my deepest emotions, thoughts and life experiences.
