Artist's Commentary
The life in the city has inspired me to create a series of digital collages called Abstract Narratives. The cityscapes often seem to be formed from cast shadows, reflected light, or backlighting. Geometrical shapes often suggest impossible spaces that seek to be deciphered. With this series, I strive to create a visual language that verges on poetry. The shapes are always suggested, leaving an open door to mystery.
