From the moment I began painting Under Water, I knew I was drawn to a metaphor far greater than the surface itself. My water figures embody life’s complexities and endless transformations, reimagining water as a mirror to the human experience—a symbol of resilience, fragility, and surrender.
The weightlessness of the diver captures a fleeting moment of freedom, inviting viewers to feel that they, too, are a fragment of a much larger force. Water becomes the sole master of these scenes—its ripples, currents, and depths dictate the narrative, evoking both tranquility and uncertainty. Though the figure endures both physical and emotional struggles, my intent is to dissolve reality and transform the moment into something abstract, intangible—an exploration of connection, self-awareness, and release.
A motif that continually shapes this collection is solitude—a lone woman plunging into the depths of a pool. She becomes a poignant metaphor for the human voyage, encapsulating both the silent burdens we carry and the profound beauty of navigating them. Through these figures and their fluid world, I hope to spark quiet introspection, an intimate dialogue between the viewer and their own emotions, as they find resonance in the ebb and flow of these underwater narratives.
