I wanna eat every part of you — Oil and oil pastel on canvas.

The Lighthouse — Oil and oil pastel on canvas.

all empires fall apart at some point — Oil and oil pastel on canvas.

THE WEST IS HAUNTED, THE body speaks — Oil and oil stick on canvas.

The Send Nudes series consists of large-scale paintings in which digital nudes exchanged with past lovers are transformed into spectral cartographies of the body, hovering between presence and disappearance. Fleeting depictions of the self become terrains for the rehearsal of intimacy; the phone as an erotic prosthesis. The contours of skin, gestures, and touch are abstracted into contingent landscapes, evoking the persistence of images long after their disappearance.

Rendered in oil and pigment on canvas, each work rematerialises the ephemeral texture of digital intimacy as something tactile and enduring. What was once immediate and immaterial becomes sedimented, layered, textured—small elegies to longing and the complex afterlife of images.

In these paintings, the circulation of desire through screens and signals collapses into the slow temporality of pigment and surface. They trace a movement from data to dust, from compressed pixels to embodied matter—a transformation that gestures toward the fragility of memory and the ways intimacy endures, mutates, and decays across technologies of vision and touch.
