'Liminal spaces' refer to places that feel eerie, surreal, or in-between state often evoking feelings of nostalgia, unease, or even peace. The term comes from the Latin word limen, meaning “threshold,” which hints at their transitional nature.

For me, Liminal Spaces are abandoned warehouses, empty industrial sites, buildings awaiting demolishing or even fields in the middle of nowhere. These places take on new meaning, as communities debase their original use for their own. These places gave birth to the illegal rave and graffiti scenes, for a brief moment before being taken back for the sake or corporate expansion.


"A Study in Black" is an evocative exploration of form and texture, inspired by the stark and imposing beauty of brutalist architecture. This abstract work, created with acrylic paint on paper and canvas, captures the essence of these formidable structures through a monochromatic palette reminiscent of black and white photography. In this series, layers of black and grey paint are meticulously applied to the canvas, each layer contributing to a complex interplay of shades and tones. The resulting compositions are dark and moody, evoking the sombre elegance of brutalist buildings. The abstract forms hint at the architectural origins, inviting viewers to discern the subtle outlines and shapes that emerge from the depths of the painting. The process of layering different shades of black and grey paint mirrors the methodical construction of the buildings that inspired this piece. Each layer adds nuance, creating a sense of dimension and solidity akin to the concrete facades of brutalist architecture. "A Study in Black" challenges the viewer to find beauty in the austere and the minimal, encouraging a deeper appreciation for the nuances of shadow and light. This work is a testament to the artist's skill in transforming photographic elements into a painterly abstraction, resulting in a powerful visual experience that is both contemplative and compelling.
