Love, beauty and freedom sit at the core of human experience. They offer moments of warmth and happiness, yet at the same time draw us into a cycle of longing that never fully settles. These values guide how we move through the world, through relationships, memories and a sense of belonging. Yet beneath this, there is a lingering tension, a quiet restlessness that sits alongside moments of joy.
Presented as a series of paintings in the format of an album, the work gathers small and fleeting moments of coexistence. These instances of warmth and connection appear briefly, offering a pause within the dull ache of everyday melancholy.
At the same time, the work reflects on the inner condition of the younger generation. In a world shaped by constant connection through social media, there remains a sense of distance and isolation. Within this space, emotions are often held back, difficult to express and are quietly carried.
Usually content of dream is strange and not consistent. I think that dream is composed from scattered my memories. I drew a dream which I had before.

in the quietness of her life
Her expression is detailed in this
painting, which gives the impression of
a gentle breeze blowing somewhere in
the still blue background. Instead of
being entirely bathed in strong
backlight, the shadows are darker in
places, reflecting her quiet immersion
in her own time.

cafe staff begging for help
This is a scene from a creative cartoon, in which a heroic descendant is coerced out of a worldly crisis and salvation, but is dragged away by an unwilling incoming candidate. The vivid colour scheme concentrated on pop and disturbing contrasts .
