Paracosm
My paintings live at a playful crossroads of object, illusion, and the transcendence of devoted observation and perception. The work presents the mystical concept of a paracosm, a world built inside one’s imagination that is so vivid it becomes real. Inspired by urban landscapes and Gothic architecture, I blend observed places, personal objects, and art historical abstractions to create paintings that play with reality and illusion, personifying the interpersonal and the supernatural.
