City of Sorrows

With this project I aspire to create mood, emotion, curiosity and a different perspective. With this deeply personal body of work, I delved into the dark world of anxiety, depression and loneliness. To visually interpret it. To understand it. The “film noir” style, layered with multiple techniques, creating artistic narrative experiences to convey the pessimism, fatalism, and menace of this world within my dynamic abstract compositions.

The city landscape sets the scene, like a dark mistress absorbing us into her darkness and isolation. Within her mystery we seek hope and salvation while blurring the lines of reality in search of redemption.

Ultimately, my aim is to evoke a visceral response from my viewers, to create a surreal and thought-provoking world within my images, and to invite them to explore their own inner worlds as well.

Don't allow the cities we inhabit to box you in. The square walls we build may seem unmovable and often overwhelming. These are obstacles and barricades we only create, as part of our subconscious, that can be overcome by looking deep within and believing in ourselves to break these walls and get out of the square we once put ourselves in.
