In my early work, I explored the emotional resonance of color through expansive fields and minimalist compositions. Stripping away form and narrative, I sought to create spaces where color could speak for itself—shifting between presence and absence, stillness and intensity. These works were experiments in perception and feeling, inviting viewers into quiet encounters with saturation, contrast, and subtle variation. Influenced by the language of color field painting, I was less interested in representation than in evocation—using hue and surface to suggest mood, memory, and atmosphere.
