"Ephemeral" is the name of the series I began painting in 2018.

 

The story behind my glass spheres stems from an experience I had with a Betta fish in a small container. I realized that, for him, it was "his world"—a limited space that encompassed everything he relied on.

 

Moved by this experience, I felt a deep connection with him, recognizing that my universe is the planet I inhabit and all the living beings that share it.

 

In one of his poems, Rabindranath Tagore wrote, "Do not behave badly with your world; do not predispose it against you." This phrase encapsulates the message of my work.

 

Through my painting, I reflect on our current moment, marked by significant environmental deterioration due to pollution and climate change, which threatens our survival.

 

To convey my thoughts visually, I use symbolic elements such as glass, cloth, and dry leaves, representing the ephemeral and fragile nature of existence.

 

The refined acrylic technique I employ on canvas allows me to create smooth and transparent surfaces, while the varied and intense colors provide my work with expressive force.
