Temet nosce
I am an abstract artist inspired by a diverse but complementary set of inputs and influences, combined with the energy and ideology of many 19th and 20th century art movements. Through my art I explore and present a subjective interpretation of the innermost feelings of the self using a well defined ‘codex’ and an ‘artistic grammar’.
