The sculpture "Aleph" uses the bas-relief technique to depict the symbol of the letter Aleph, which is highly significant in various spiritual and mystical traditions. As a contemporary conceptual work of art, it explores the deep meanings associated with this symbol. The letter Aleph holds significant symbolism as it represents the concept of beginnings. It embodies the first impulse and the initial spark of creation. In many religious beliefs, it is considered God's creative will, visualizing the divine breath that sets everything in motion. Furthermore, Aleph signifies the beginning of thought, representing the point where ideas and concepts originate. It embodies the potential for infinite possibilities and the unfolding of divine creative energy. In terms of masculinity, Aleph is often identified as a masculine symbol, representing strength and power. It embodies the concept of the primordial male principle and is associated with qualities such as assertiveness, action, and initiation.

I try to use an interdisciplinary artistic approach in my work, combining different techniques to create a seamless dialogue between painting and sculpture. As an architect, I need additional volume in my works, making them a true spatial experience. My interest in developing a thematic composition in an interior suggests a desire to create an immersive environment where wall paintings and sculptures interact as a unified ensemble. The soft shimmer of watercolour provides a gentle, ethereal quality, creating a calming effect, whilst the plasticity of sculpture gives my work a tactile presence. The use of oil painting to achieve realism in surrealistic subjects demonstrates my and desire to evoke wonder and contemplation. This multi-faceted approach allows me to explore themes dynamically, blurring the boundaries between two-dimensional and three-dimensional art and transforming the interior into a poetic, experience-filled environment.
