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 (Vessel) takes on the silhouette of a container or body—rounded, upright, and crowned with a jagged, crown-like top. Rendered in a vivid magenta, the piece is assertive and alive, its saturated color pushing against the object’s otherwise quiet geometry. A rectangular extension juts outward, like a spout, handle, or architectural protrusion, complicating the form’s balance and hinting at function. The title suggests containment, offering, or care—an object designed to hold something, but here emptied of contents and narrative. What remains is structure, gesture, and intention: an abstracted body made to carry presence and potential.
