g i r l - f r i e n d s is a series of paintings about friendships as intimate building blocks of a soul.

Girlfriends, mother, grandmother were my inspiration; half-remembered memories spring on canvas in the monochroma of dreams; life unfolds between lights and shadows. Thus coloring becomes of secondary importance.

Each painting focuses on moments of perfect balance around which every of the nine stories revolves.

I aimed to incite viewer's personal moments of nostalgia, bliss, melancholy or wonder using the anonymous building blocks of my soul.
