Large-scale abstract paintings translating invisible ecological data
into psychogeographical maps.
-
Mixed-media works in which color-coded signs, lines, and layered marks render
what sensors measure, but cannot feel.

“Environmental monitoring measures what we can detect.
These paintings ask what we can sense.”
About the theme of
Environmental Monitoring
Environmental monitoring involves systematically observing and measuring environmental parameters
to assess ecosystem health, tracking air and water quality, biodiversity, climate conditions, and pollution levels
across regions and communities.
In this series, I ask: how can these invisible systems
be represented as abstract maps?
My approach begins with color-coded signs and lines
that highlight variations across different regions,
not as charts, but as metaphors.
I freely transform data visualization techniques,
filtering scientific observation through emotional
and psychogeographical interpretation.
The result is not a diagram. It is a felt record.
Each canvas becomes a map of what a landscape
is experiencing, the stress it carries, the patterns it repeats,
the signals it emits that most of us never register.
