Through collage-based paintings and drawings, he intertwines personal images—often separated by physical and cultural distances—into a unified visual language. By revisiting and repeating certain motifs, he blurs boundaries and transforms them into a personal iconography, exploring memory, nostalgia, and the passage of time. These recurring elements evoke continuity, prompting reflection on how moments are preserved, altered, or lost as they are revisited. Each piece unfolds in series and renditions, mirroring the evolving nature of memory itself—layered, fragmented, and deeply tied to both personal and collective experiences. <img width="5306"
