ความสนใจของฉัน

เกี่ยวกับงาน

แนวความคิดของฉัน:

My paintings are seamlessly renditions based on compilations of cut-outs, mostly from found photographs. By the means of photo-editing, I have begun to sense the specific “reality” I wish to present as directly generated by the manipulation of the image’s structure, as a self-fulfilling prophecy. I am interested in the illusionist space: the situation in which, with the help of the most discreet interventions, one can alter a form to the point of creating a new dimension. It is paradoxically through representation that I am searching for the status of questioning the reality of the image and the reasons of its existence.

The support of my work is the observation that contemporary imagery puts us in a state of awe and as we are targeting the image, our inner core is also targeted and slightly changes with our every gaze. Because media and technology became so advanced, because we live in fact within the image world, it became difficult to orientate between model, copy and simulacra. Manual reproduction presents the viewer with an approachable, trustworthy depiction. It is a method to authenticate.

One of my practice essentials is to overlap contour drawings made in graphite on finished paintings. It is a form of vandalism directed at my own authority, presenting the multidimensionality of this world and pointing out that there are several possible directions, that things are not unambiguous or dual, but have many faces. At the same time I favor the meaning of drawing as something ephemeral, a performance of desire.
