This series revisits and reimagines unresolved gestures, frayed narratives, and unfinished thoughts - returning not to complete them, but to explore alternate pathways left open. Forms blur, lines dissolve, and figures waver between presence and collapse. Each painting holds a quiet tension: between clarity and distortion, memory and forgetting, persistence and undoing.

Rather than seeking resolution, Loose Ends moves in rhythms of interruption and return - asking what still holds shape when certainty falls away.
