Dark Side

Slim, sensual figures, women, long hair, long legs, all in black, unrecognizable, hiding behind the artists imagination, only allowing you a shadow of a glimpse, a sexy flat abdomen, daring you for a taste, daring your thoughts to complete the image, pulling you into a world you didn’t know existed, pure bliss and paradise, dark desires.

Although these abstract figures make you wonder about the murky, troubled mind of the artist, it also pushes at your own mind, at that part of you that unlike the rest of you who wants to look away, this part likes it, loves it… admires the art. It reveals in a part of you that you might seldom let loose, a dark side everybody has. There’s nothing wrong with it, I believe that in this collection he reveals his dark side, and he dares us to do the same.
