COLOR AND VACUUM is my personal project about the study of color, form and emptiness. A synesthesia exercise that recognizes my different emotions in colors. A research that elevates my creative discourse far beyond the simply aesthetic.
"My paintings speak in the only language a know - color"

My working methods always focus on clean visuals and simplicity:
"If an artwork has reason for being, it is enough with very few elements."
