Zen paintings
Rendering the invisible through visible form.
Rooted in Zen philosophy, this series explores the subtle movements of the mind and aspects of existence that resist physical form.
Points, lines, geometric shapes, color, and negative space interact to create compositions in which stillness and tension coexist.
Drawing on a wide range of motifs—from the cosmos, life, and the natural world to everyday vessels and abstract forms—these works seek to reveal what lies beyond visible appearances.
They quietly invite the viewer to contemplate a fundamental question: What does it mean to exist?
