After two decades of creating, I have reached a turning point: I am releasing almost all of my works into the world. My paintings and collages will find new homes in educational institutions, child and youth protection projects, and in the hands of young artists eager to reimagine and transform them.
This decision comes from a place of clarity. I have created enough, achieved enough, and I feel the limits of my strength. Exhibitions and the demands of the art market consume reserves I no longer wish to spend. Establishing myself as an artist was a success, yet the commercial aspect—earning money—was never my focus. For me, art has always been an act of devotion, an intense process that continues until the work itself declares completion.
In these tense times, overshadowed by scarcity thinking, I choose a different path. I am not wealthy, nor do I possess much, but my happiness lies in the quiet satisfaction of having faced and overcome the challenges of my existence.
My wish is that schools, social projects, and shelters for children and young people may benefit from my works. I am equally delighted when young creatives take them further—reworking, reshaping, and imprinting their own vision. In this way, my art becomes a beginning rather than an end: alive, adaptable, and communal.
