As an artist, I commit to the exploration and preservation
of the unseen, the forgotten, and the ephemeral. I believe that art is not only
an act of creation but an act of archiving — a way to document, preserve, and
transform the transient moments and materials of our time into something
eternal, tangible, and meaningful.

Art is an archive — a collection of memories, experiences,
and visions that span across time, space, and identity. I approach the act of
creation as an archivist of the intangible, gathering fragments of existence to
form abstract compositions. Each work is a testament to the past, present, and future, an embodiment of the physical and emotional materials that shape our world.

My canvases are not mere backdrops; they are active
repositories of texture, time, and intention. With each metallic layer, I seek
to embed these works with traces of impermanence, creating a visual record of
human perception. Every mark, every nuance of sheen,
reflects the process of remembering and reinterpreting what has come before.

Through abstraction, I reject the idea that art must always
be literal or representational. My compositions are not concerned with
portraying the visible world but with capturing its essence. By using metallic
textures and a dynamic interplay of light, shadow, and form, I aim to evoke
emotion and thought in ways that transcend the need for recognizable imagery.

The abstract compositions I create act as visual
records, inviting the viewer to engage with the complexities of the past, the
present, and the speculative future. I do not seek to represent the world as it
is, but rather as it could be — a distorted archive of possibility, memory, and
transformation.

In the process of archiving, I am aware of the fluidity and
impermanence of memory. Just as metal oxidizes and wears down over time, so too
does human recollection. My art reflects the tension between permanence and
decay, capturing the moment before the inevitable transformation. Each metallic
texture speaks to the impermanence of material and memory, the idea that
nothing is truly static, and everything is subject to the forces of time and
change.

By working with metals, I embrace the wear and deterioration
of the material as part of the process. My pieces are not fixed in time but
instead shift as the viewer moves, experiencing new facets of the work with
each change in light and angle. This is the nature of both memory and history:
always evolving, never static, always in motion.

In every abstract composition, I seek to create an
alchemical process — transforming raw materials into something greater than the
sum of their parts. The metallic surfaces I employ, with their varied textures
and effects, are deliberately manipulated to evoke a sense of both construction
and deconstruction. I push the boundaries of these materials, transforming them
into intricate surfaces that possess both a sense of weight and weightlessness,
permanence and flux.

Art, to me, is a site of constant transformation — a place
where materials, ideas, and time are continually reworked, reinterpreted, and
reinvented. My practice is a response to this ever-changing world, a reminder
that the past is never truly gone but always in the process of being reshaped.

Finally, my art is a conversation — a dialogue between
artist and viewer, past and future, memory and transformation. It is a shared
experience of archiving, where each viewer contributes their own
interpretation, understanding, and perspective to the work. In this way, the
art becomes a collective archive, a living, breathing record that grows and
evolves through time.

Through abstraction and metallic texture, I create not just
pieces of art, but archives of human experience — ever-changing, ever-evolving,
and ever-persistent in the face of time. This is the future of art: a
commitment to preserving and transforming the world around us through the
archival process of creation.

In this manifesto, I vow to continue the journey of
archiving, transforming, and abstracting, in pursuit of a future where art is
not only a reflection of the present but a record of all that has been and all
that is yet to come.
