My work is much about places, about the ways through which one could relate to, move through and comprehend the spatial and environmental aspect of our very travel-able and seemingly smaller world. The travel-ability and mobility of our time intensifies the contact, exchange and comparison between drastically different places and human conditions. 

As an artist, I am at the same time puzzled and intrigued by such a phenomenon. Through my work, I explore various ways to arrange and juxtapose different abstract visual elements, images of places and landscapes against one another.
 
The landscape in my painting are often an imagined place combined smoothly together from a multiple of independent scenes. The actual forms in my painting, let it be the hill, the rock or an open plain, are my condensed expression of the specific abstract relations between things, rather than reference to specific places and locations. In my paintings, I am interested in finding each time a different solution to bridge the unbridgeable spaces, to create a travel-able channel between the places without compromising their own different spatial conditioning and orientations.

Through such a play, I am interested in exploring the gap between forms and, through reversing something certain, to reach an open form that is rich in potentiality.

This is a Berlin-based experimental project raising question to each of us about  memory and time:


**......................""So early to remember""........................**


We have been here before, haven't we?
We walked these streets, sat in these cafes, talked to the bypasses, in the names of the traveler, thinker and creators.All feel so familiar, yet once more with strange faces, like the telegraph poles in Berlin masked by hundreds of posters pilling off. Reincarnation never ceases for a city and nor for us. All is so early to remember.

"So early to remember" is the first phase of an ongoing project "Braille". We are all readers of braille, decoding secrets of life greater than our words. This reading should never be asked, it asks. When our eyes rest the world darkens, our memories surfaces from the silence like dewed flower, so far yet so fresh. Their pedals too fragilely youthful tempt us while we age, and time sets us apart when we cry for reunion. Distance in time becomes the source of all mysteries and we are once again the readers of Braille. Before this ruthlessness we compromise, surrender,  nevertheless resist, hold 
and create. 

With this vision in mind, we are calling for creative minds, artists, writers, performers, to join our journey and submit works responding to our first topic, "So early to remember". The topic is related to memories of past and of those reincarnated through time. Notice that the first stage is meant to be working like a pilot ballon, which not only grounds our current creative approach but also tests the limits of our creativity on this matter. You are all encouraged to freely interpret the meaning of the title, of time and memory. 

**All works in physical forms are welcomed, and works collected will be displayed in a designated location in Berlin(will soon be updated)  As both our group and project are still in the developmental stage, we are highly open and enthusiastic about new participants and any input of new idea and suggestion. **

 writings, calligraphies, printed photos, graffiti, performance, etc.
