The Enchanted Joylands
My current body of work explores surreal landscapes and post-photographic aesthetics, rendered through evocative, painterly compositions that serve as artistic playgrounds for experimentation. The Enchanted Joylands reimagines traditional notions of poetic fantasy and escapism. By blending the familiar with the fantastical, the series evokes a sense of wonder and curiosity, encouraging viewers to immerse themselves in the imagery and uncover its many layers of meaning. The use of vibrant colours and intricate details draws the viewer in, inviting closer examination of the composition's various elements. These Joylands emerge from internal and surreal landscapes, reflecting illusions, fantasies, and Eastern aesthetics. Viewers can appreciate in detail how I manipulate the enchanted image between photographic realism and pictorial poetics. Through its narratives and characters—infused with a subtle touch of humour—I invite the audience to journey through the series.

My Wonderlands
My inspiration for this project arises from painterly traditions and cinematic landscapes, where digital imaging serves as a new medium through which to express my vision of utopia. My Wonderlands reconsiders the notion of the 'cinematographic' image, blending Eastern and Western pictorial influences into a cohesive visual language. The series unfolds within a fictional universe—rooted in echoes of the real world, yet untethered to any specific place or setting. Through vivid colours and theatrical juxtapositions, these composite photographs accentuate depth and scale, giving form to imagined worlds. I believe that when we pause to observe the intricacies within these large-scale works, our imagination can awaken alternate realities. This project seeks to convey a layered narrative through a distinct and meticulously crafted visual style. While it appears to explore the scenario between realism and surrealism, it also reflects on the evolving relationship between painting and photography, challenging conventional boundaries and inviting the viewer into a dialogue between the real and the imagined.
