The Full Story

Cave Art gallery & Studio

over two years ago, I stood in what was little more than a forgotten storage room—its roof leaking, walls stained, and floor cluttered with scraps and waste from the Hazel Grove Auto Center garage. Most people saw junk. I saw potential. With a lot of hard work and imagination, I transformed that dilapidated space into a vibrant gallery and working studio—a place where art could breathe again. What began as a personal sanctuary for my own creative work has since grown into something much bigger. My vision is for this space to become a platform for emerging artists—a small but welcoming gallery where others can share their voices through their art, and already, it’s starting to happen.

Every Wednesday evening, Waran Music Group fills the room with magical rhythms and melodies during their rehearsals, bringing the walls to life. The Cultural Bridge Group has also found a home here, using the office as a meeting space for their community work—far removed from the bustle of the surrounding industrial complex. Today, this once-abandoned room is alive with creativity and connection. It’s more than just a gallery—it’s a gathering place, a cultural hub, and a symbol of what can happen when you dare to reimagine what something can be...

My works are an attempt to attract the audience with a strong abstract language and a strong sense of composition. The use of deep y and earthy tones creates an interesting contrast, evoking landscapes or aerial views, which fits nicely with the “space and nature” theme. Layered silhouettes and textures suggest stories or figures emerging from the environment, inviting interpretation without dictating meaning.

I am in dialogue between nature and space. I want to find my space among nature and find my balance and connections.

There’s also an emotional weight to the compositions—sad but alive. At the same time, they feel meditative and expressive, like a glimpse into a dream or memory. That’s a beautiful, profound concept—this idea of ​​being in dialogue both with the vastness of space and the intimacy of nature. My paintings reflect that tension and harmony; to feel the internal scenery as much as the external ones. The textured layers and figures seem to explore, move, or emerge, mirroring your personal journey towards balance and connection.

There’s something truly poetic about using abstract visual language in my paintings, to express an endless search for belonging—a kind of spiritual mapping. The ambiguity in the forms makes the viewer part of that journey, as if they too are trying to orient themselves in a vast and changing world . . . .
