This series of woodcuts serves as an archive of memories and inspirations, fleeting moments from my childhood, preserved and reimagined. While the visuals might appear abstract, they are rooted in a structure inherently familiar to the human mind.Each piece is an amalgam of my personal visual vocabulary, laid bare for the viewer to interpret through their own experiences. The accompanying words and titles are suggestive interpretations, meant to guide yet not confine. These works merge fragments of nostalgic memories with dreamlike impressions, creating a landscape where the past and subconscious intertwine.Ultimately, these visuals invite dialogue. They are open to multiple readings, shaped as much by the viewer’s imagination as by my own recollections.
