Het is an abbreviation of my name. I use it as a pseudonym to help maintain my autonomy and anonymity.
Resourcefulness is crucial to my artistic process as my work focuses on extracting innate aesthetics and utilising unwanted, reclaimed, and overlooked materials. The artwork consists of abstract, intricate architectural structures and light-changing intuitive surfaces, often combined with geometrical circular shapes absorbed into the surface. The colour palette is strict and frequently relies on reactions to light and texture.
My art serves as a guide, encouraging pause, observation, and appreciation of our world. It appeals to heightened self-awareness and a deeper connection with our surroundings. These interventions mirror my appreciation for concealed potential, regeneration, and renewal of omitted or discarded possibilities.
My photographs serve as spontaneous notes that allow me to appreciate often-overlooked surroundings. They also enhance my awareness and sensibilities while exercising my evaluative skills.
