- 2025 Developing a Collage Technique for the Series “Our Blue Planet”
As a self-taught artist, I have long been exploring techniques for depicting landscapes:
For the series “Our Blue Planet,” I prepare the canvases with an emulsion of marble dust, coffee grounds and sand, which creates tactile, three-dimensional textures. I then work on these reliefs using airbrush paints and pigment solutions.
