Silentium
Stillness as presence. The tension beneath calm.
In Silentium, silence is not emptiness — it is presence. These works explore the spaces between noise, the pauses between thoughts, the breath before action. A minimal, pared-down aesthetic emerges through subtle contrasts and refined tonalities.
The compositions evoke architecture, memory, and solitude. Each canvas becomes a moment of still awareness, where nothing happens, yet everything is held. Stillness here is not peace; it’s intensity held in balance.
This series offers a quiet resistance — a space to retreat, to feel, and to reconnect with what lies beneath.These works reflect a moment of quiet I needed — and now share with others.

A painting to breathe with.
