Description

I See You IV is one of the representative works of my Crystal Flower series and was officially exhibited at the 61st Venice Biennale – National Pavilion of Tanzania. This work brings together years of exploration into light, memory, crystal structures, and UV-reactive pigments into a single visual language. Rather than depicting a flower itself, the petals are reconstructed as crystalline forms that refract, reflect, and scatter light, transforming an ordinary blossom into a vessel of memory. Created with oil paint and UV-reactive pigments, the painting is designed to reveal different layers of color and perception under changing illumination. The crystalline petals appear to preserve light itself, suggesting that memories, like crystals, continue to exist even after time has passed. I See You IV represents the culmination of my Crystal Flower series, where figurative painting and abstraction converge. It embodies my ongoing belief that everything that exists leaves a trace, and that light is the medium through which those traces continue to endure.
