The Power of Creation

The Power of Creation is a collection of paintings done together with my daughter Helena when she was two years old. While doing this work, I prioritized Helena’s creative impulse and individual capacity as a very young human being. So I sat back and waited until she was done painting on one paper and proceeded to another. My contribution to each work was to merely finish adding color to the background or any space left in white that I thought should be colored, which means that all the shapes and movements in these works come from the creative power of a child. When selecting these paintings to become a collection, I intended to offer proof of our innate creative ability.
