Statement

"I paint gas tanks as they are expensive relics, vessels to catch attention. Like a shiny wrapping paper to switch the way we see them. They lost the uniformity and yellow neutrality, and each develops its own personality. I made gas tanks become part of my identity to feel less foreign, to be part of something bigger; a family, a country, a neighborhood. To feel at home without having one."
