In his series of paintings, the artist is not searching for a specific narrative, a clear theme or style, but a way to convey the noise of information that surrounds him. By “overloading” himself with random illustrations found in scrap paper, he is trying to form a new web of entangled images, which would invite the viewer to reflect on his or her own relationship with image recognition, to look for fragments that are familiar in this jumble of paintings, and to try to engage in this noise of images that he has formed.
