This is not a collection of images. Each painting is a slow-motion disaster, a way to excavate chaos.

These works have no fixed order; they are maps of instability. They live inside the moment when things begin to fail.

Each painting is a fragment of that failure; a portrait of a world collapsing.

Nothing stops. Everything falls.







RUINS OF THE FUTURE



Cities as abstract prisons. The exact moment when structures crumble and rupture becomes inevitable. Portraits of buildings that stop pretending they’re eternal.

BROKEN BODIES




The human scale of disaster. Bodies moved by external forces; unable to act, unable to resist. Lives bound by restraints they no longer know how to undo.

OUTER LIMITS




Minimal scenes where reality collapses and the characters deny it. Logic cracks; denial becomes certainty. The last refuge before impact.
