This series of small abstract works marks an intentional pivot toward a quieter, more distilled visual language within my practice. While abstraction has long been an undercurrent in my work, these pieces function as focused studies—experiments in form, rhythm, and restraint. Stripped of overt iconography and narrative references, they lean into the materiality of laser-cut acrylic and the tensions created through industrial hardware and layered color. These works are not departures but extensions—exploring how abstraction can hold emotional weight, cultural residue, and spatial complexity even in the absence of easily legible symbols. In a moment defined by noise and acceleration, this body of work explores stillness, nuance, and the poetics of reduction.

Untitled (Bump) is soft, curving, and suggestive—its pastel pink palette and rounded silhouette inviting a more intimate kind of looking. The composition feels bodily, plush, and playful, with a gentle asymmetry that evokes touch, closeness, or flirtation. A single peach-toned shape rises through the center like a gesture or swelling, while the hexagon above it holds position like a quiet eye or ornament. The title plays with double meaning—referring to physical texture, motion, or even flirtatious contact. This piece hums with quiet sensuality, not overt but undeniable, using abstraction to hint at desire, surface, and closeness without needing to name them.
