Laguna College of Art + Design

My thesis is meant to be an exciting adventure in which I attempt to convey to the

viewer a human portrait as an enigmatic puzzle, filled with allegorical interpretations of

moral, social and cultural issues. Recently I came to the conclusion that the environment

we build around us is a reflection of ourselves. Being inspired by the latest discovery I

attempt to depict a portrait of a human character by blending the reality and imagination,

including personal and allegorical matters, living spaces and historical places. Each

project is a part of a bigger idea to bring the attention to human values.

It is not the final work that is important to me; it is the process by which the work

is created that has the impact on me. Some time ago I discovered an addiction to art

which I had never felt before with anything else. Today I consider the process of making

art as my true reality where I have found my emotional comfort. I realized that only by

experience I improve and refine my art; each error or false start is the tool that helps me

along the path to better work and for that reason I no longer resent them.
