The Cosmic Being and The Universal Humanoid, 2026, are etchings in editions of twenty that translate the artist’s instinctive drawing language into a medium defined by permanence and precision. Scratched directly into metal, each line carries a sense of immediacy and commitment, echoing the artist’s fascination with mark-making as both physical act and psychological trace.
Both of them have like an energy of the body. They're both about the body and the mind, and this kind of kinetic, frenetic flux of my mental processing, my bodily functions, the growth and decay of the human body mixed with the stuff around us, you know, the sunlight, dust, noises… It make sense to me.
The hand-coloured variations introduce a further dimension to the editions. Rather than functioning as repetition, each work becomes a re-interpretation, allowing the original mark to shift in tone, rhythm, and atmosphere across the series.
