Intimate in scale, these small works inhabit the space between concealment and illumination. Figures, interiors, rain-darkened windows and distant lights emerge softly from shadow, never fully disclosed yet charged with emotional presence. Through muted palettes and atmospheric brushwork, the paintings evoke moments of stillness, solitude, memory and longing.

‘Victorialand’ is a series of oil paintings that explores the hubris and failed imperial ambition that sit beneath carefully maintained public façade of colonial success.
Conceived as a fictional Victorian settlement in Antarctica, the city functions as a speculative site where imperial confidence and belief in empire begin to unravel. The project examines how colonial power sustains itself through myth, visibility, and narrative, and what remains when those myths are exposed to failure.
Painted slowly using traditional oil techniques, ‘Victorialand’ treats painting as a form of speculative world-building. The series holds imperial ambition in suspension, exposing how its myths persist even as their foundations crumble.
