The Colors of Sound SUPERNOVA Series is a collection of mixed-media paintings where I focus my attention on the contrast of light and shadows, the juxtaposition of silence and sound.

Through these works, I continue examining the important role that sound (or the absence of it) plays in our lives.  Sound deeply affects our interactions with one another. Sound takes up space. Sound and space cannot be separated; sound, as mechanical vibration, needs room to unfold, and matter to modulate. This means that an acoustic experience is, by its very definition, a spatial one as well.

Through highly pigmented ink washes combined with fluid and medium body acrylics, I carefully add layers on top of layers, creating multidimensional figures on the canvas. I use repetitive mark-making to create texture, depth, and shapes to resemble sound waves and energy. Some of these shapes also resemble universe elements like stars, planet-like textures with the aim to capture with vibrant color magnetic energy.

Since my hearing loss occurred in 2017, I have seen significant progress in the severity of my Hyperacusis (now mild, but still present) and still struggle with ongoing Tinnitus, occasional dizziness, and mental fatigue (foggy brain).

The intertwined elements and colors in my paintings “balance” each other out the same way I try to balance a hectic life with symptoms that are invisible and taxing. The beauty of it all is that the brain eventually learns to adapt and thrives over the symptoms, putting them on a "secondary layer”.

My goal with this collection is to show how low energy and dark situations in life can be transformed into more positive and lighter energy, turning desolation and frustration into beauty.
