In most of my work the importance of aesthetic for me was so clear, The visual balance, composition of forms, appearance are things that covers all my ideas. finding about formalism helped me to understand my critical framework.
Choose of abstract for as a universal language, visual balance to create universal element comes out of my works. Learning about formalism helped me to understand what I make and why forms and visual balance are important for me.

My struggling of not belonging in a concept of Westerners nor Easterners.
