Time is Reflected in the Eyes
| surreal eye on memory and time

2019, Markers, pens and watercolor on A4 paper

About the Artwork

A surreal mixed media composition inspired by the idea that the eyes are silent archives of everything a soul has ever witnessed. Layers of watercolor, pens and markers create translucent textures where memory, emotion and passing seasons merge. The central eye contains symbolic reflections giving the impression of time folding inward and looping infinitely. It is both spiritual and introspective, inviting the viewer to confront impermanence and awareness.

Explore the Expromptivism Series

Expromptivism is a form of art rooted in improvisational drawings and paintings, born from the habit of beginning without a preconceived plan. The creative process starts with a single mark that dictates everything that follows, making the act of drawing itself the central point. Each line and hesitation is a record of a decision made in the present, emphasizing the visible hand of the artist. The resulting pieces are less about illustration and more about trusting the creative impulse and the way the hand tells the eye what to see. These works wear their making proudly, rewarding repeated looking as they turn practice into objects and improvisation into presence.
