“Self” is a small abstract painting made of acrylics, oil sticks, pastels and pencils on sheer fabric and raw linen, inspired by the Primary Archetypes of Carl Jung. The Jungian ‘Self’ represents the unification of the conscious and unconscious within an individual. It’s the archetype that connects our spiritual and earthly facets, simbolising our striving for unity and wholeness.

As a multidisciplinary artist and documentary filmmaker, I’ve always been attracted to the inner landscapes of human beings, exploring themes of cultural hybridity, psychology, and spirituality. Having lived among complex and conflictual worlds, my work reflects diverse cultural influences and a personal exploration of identity, belonging and freedom. My paintings are characterised by bold and vibrant colour choices, employing multiple media and materials, like the diverse fabrics of societies I inhabit. As a result of this identity tapestry, I became interested in the transcendental, and how we can arrive from the material to the immaterial, where perhaps we can find more things in common than the conflictual realities we live in.
