Minimalism has always helped me say more by showing less. Removing unnecessary details gives the important parts space to be seen.
This approach allows the work to focus on the emotional core rather than the decoration around it. In my pieces, minimalism isn’t about being simple; it’s about clarity. It directs attention to the feeling, the story, or the tension inside the frame. With fewer distractions, the viewer can more easily sense the atmosphere, including the stillness, the conflict, and the quiet truth behind the image.
Minimalism also reveals hidden complexity. A single line, a shift in colour, or an empty space can carry weight. Subtle choices hold meaning, and the absence of detail becomes a form of expression.
This approach fits my themes: identity, vulnerability, and inner conflict. These ideas are quiet by nature, shaping how we feel without announcing themselves. By stripping things down, I allow the complexity to emerge and invite the viewer to bring their own story into the space. Minimalism becomes a space for connection, reflection, and understanding.
