Like time, the creative process heals. Colours, textures, sounds and words give us the opportunity to express what we feel.
To tell stories, our own or other’s, and in the telling of stories we find that we are not alone. Our stories have been told many times over through all the ages. Yet we tell, we listen, and we find ourselves in them.

No story has been told more than that which makes us human – love. It carries the greatest reward, yet nothing in this life may ask more from us.

My work starts with the certainty of change, indeed that “A change is gonna come.” In a constant interaction with music, the first work contains many pallets that I collected over years, each with its own shapes, colours and emotions.
I found that I quickly veered to the abstract. Love itself is abstract, beyond human words or pictures.

I took the first step without knowing where it will lead. I discovered what I never imagined. Healing does not leave you repaired. It was a journey that always led to freedom.

(In this exhibition, each painting is paired with a specific song - as seen in the title. Each piece was either inspired by that song or the painting brought a song to mind.
