Paintings

My abstract painting practice explores the relationship between image and boundary, often using the edge of the canvas or panel as an active compositional element. Rather than treating the frame as a neutral container, these works respond to it - pressing against, dissolving into, or visually extending beyond its limits. In this way, the image is not fully contained, but appears to strain outward, suggesting motion, tension, and expansion.

Although non-representational, these paintings remain spatially aware. Colour, form, and rhythm are arranged to create a sense of depth, proximity, and directional movement, echoing the physical logic of installation work. The compositions often feel transitional, as if caught between containment and release. This tension reflects an ongoing interest in how visual structures behave within constraints, and how abstraction can create a dynamic relationship between surface, space, and perception.
