"SPIRITSCAPES"
Rediscovering the Eternal Appetite for Infancy
There’s a thread running through this exhibition—A longing for light, for meaning, for something holy that still feels human.
Whether it’s landscapes lit with spiritual anticipation, abstract prayers textured into paint, or Jesus rendered in playful fragments—every work here reaches toward the Divine with open hands.
“Visual Prayers and Graffiti for the Soul”
​
My work explores the human longing for contentment—not the polished kind, but the gritty, unfinished kind that lives somewhere between the earthly and the divine.
Through abstract landscapes and fractured portraits of Jesus, I create visual prayers—raw, intuitive marks that carry the energy of graffiti. They’re urgent, sometimes messy, always reaching.
This practice isn’t about answers. It’s about presence. About being honest in the in-between. The noise, the silence, the ache for peace—these are the layers I paint with.
I want people to see themselves in the work—not in a literal way, but in that universal human search for grounding, connection, and something sacred hidden in the everyday.
