Abstracted collection
In "Abstracted," I blend abstract ideas with classical elements. This series, inspired by Abstract Expressionism and Renaissance art, explores light, composition, and historical references. Embracing artistic freedom, I avoid preconceived plans, allowing creativity to flow naturally. This approach, characterised by spontaneity and risk-taking, infuses my work with energy and innovation, leading to unexpected and exciting results.
