The "Realities" project delves into contemporary world contradictions through diverse scenes. It illustrates the coexistence of seemingly opposing forces like light and shadow, beauty and ugliness, joy and sadness—complementary rather than exclusive. Aimed at deep contemplation amidst superficial art consumption, textures play a pivotal role, offering a unique sensory experience. Distorted aesthetics and precise lines create a shared rhythm across canvases. Paint applied with tousled brushes provides a soft yet raw texture, emphasizing duality. Emphasizing chance reminds of world fragility amidst moments of grace and beauty. Ultimately, it aims to touch viewers' hearts and minds, awakening consciousness to world complexity while offering a gentle, optimistic view despite challenges.
