Art for play... and display.
Art that engages you
Art should neither be passive nor a mere pretty picture devoid of meaning! This is my artistic philosophy and the foundation of my creative process. Each artwork is based on a vision, one that I convey using minimal, yet obvious, visual cues in the form of shapes, lines, textures etc. There is just enough abstraction for you to fill in the gaps through your unique perception.
You may look closely and indulge in the impeccable intricate details, or zoom out to reflect on the intended vision. I believe that through this unconscious tapping into your memory and personal experiences, you lend a piece of you to the artwork, making it yours for play...and display!
As Paul Klee said "Art does not reproduce what we see; rather, it makes us see.”
Creative Process
I start with a vague vision of what I wish to convey and think about the bare minimum visual cues that might be relatively universal for it. For example if I want to create the sense of being underwater, I’ll leverage the shades of blue, wavy lines, textures and the vague form of a fish without actually drawing the water or a fish. I often ask my audience 'what do you see here?', and most often than not, these cues are enough to grasp the meaning. This stripping off anything other than necessary makes the viewers tap into their memory and experiences unconsciously in order to construct the holistic meaning. This interplay of 'obvious' and 'imagined' is as intriguing for my viewers as it is for me as a creator.
My creative process is underpinned by a contemplative process. Even after a work seems finished, I spend hours reflecting on its meaning and my own inspiration behind it.
