Passage in a Smaller Format

Regrettably, I didn't document the work in progress for this piece. Until now, my approach to artwork deliberately eschewed the conventional rectangle shape. My aim was to depart from typical geometric forms like rectangles, squares, and circles. Consequently, I consistently strived to create pieces with irregular edges and numerous line changes. However, I'm gradually revisiting the rectangle for two main reasons:

  • The concept of passages evokes notions of thresholds, portals, or doors, which are traditionally rectangular.
  • I believe that returning to rectangular forms could lend more gravitas to the artworks.

It will be interesting to observe how these ideas evolve in the coming months.

Doors, Gates, Passages
Multifaceted symbols of opportunities, transformations, and mysteries.
For ages,
A path to life, a path to death, to the unknown.


Doors as boundaries, yet passages are the way.
“Stop!” the gatekeepers will say.
Guardians of secrets, of our integrity at times.


It is up to you; your choice to follow…
Consequences are yours to bear.

Block the light, block the darkness, or let it all through at once!
Dreams or nightmares—what lies at the end of the corridor?
