As my artist name Katarse suggests, I view my practice as cleansing through expression. The world of Katarse is luscious, eerie and full of lurking child-like figures. I dive into the realm of grief and reveries and explore them through the medium of painting, wrapping them into surreal nuances and smoke-like textures. With every step taken closer to the artworks, one experiences that the lighthearted appearance is brimming with morbid details, and together they illustrate how multifaceted an experience of woe can be.
