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 (Sail) unfolds like a wind-filled form caught mid-motion—its sharp, jagged edge suggesting propulsion, direction, or drag. The curve that slices through the composition is both fluid and structural, bisecting fields of pale blue, mint, and deep plum. Circles float at anchor points, hinting at pulleys, rivets, or celestial markers. The title invokes a sail, a surface made functional through tension, air, and orientation. In this piece, abstraction charts a course toward navigation—not geographic, but emotional or conceptual. It’s a study in propulsion and restraint, asking what guides us, what catches wind, and what anchors us in place.
