Artist Statement
Baselines
Inspired by tribal art and simple expressionist forms, Baselines explores the foundations of visual communication. The bold shapes and symbolic marks recall the earliest engraved figures and cave drawings—humanity’s first attempts to record thought, memory, and experience.
Reduced to essential forms, the composition invites viewers to engage with the work through intuition rather than definition. The absence of a fixed narrative creates room for imagination, allowing each person to discover their own meanings and connections within the image.
Baselines reflects on the enduring power of simple marks—how the most fundamental expressions can transcend time, culture, and language. It is a reminder that creativity often begins with a single shape, a single gesture, and the freedom to imagine what comes next.
Inspired by lasseskarbovik and tribal cultures like amazigh and guanche.
