For my recent project 2020: Uninvited Unknown, which reflected on recent memories of Pandemia, I created a series of large abstract paintings in the limited palette colours in acrylics, oils and cold wax over digital print on canvas, to be exhibited in the gallery environment of the Institute of Contemporary Arts in London.
Here are the details of the paintings.

I am interested not only in abstraction but also in figurative painting as well.
It was a challenge for me to create a large 180 x 120 cm figurative painting, acrylics on canvas. It was exhibited in the Copland gallery in the mutual show this spring, a couple of days before the lockdown.

It was a fruitful year with lots of experimenting and gaining new skills and new experiences.
My next ambition to work on series of large abstract paintings reflecting on time and memories. I would also like to create contemporary figurative paintings based on personal memory and experiences, and on history.
