“For me as an artist, the initial visual impact a piece of art has on the viewer is much more important than any subsequent notion he/she later
conceives about the piece. This poses a problem, as often times, having an idea in your head and further transforming it into a piece of art is
a tricky thing to do, with the resulting image often deviating off of the original subject intended to be. Often the resulting piece mutates into
something else entirely. During the course of my career, my aim would be to create a kind of multi-layered timelessness that, I believe any piece
of art must have if it is to gain any ounce of recognition in the world of art.”
