ABOUT ME

Creating art with a strong visual identity

As both a formally and self-educated artist, my practice has always been deeply rooted in an exploration of the social and political forces that shape our lives. From a young age, I have been drawn to the ways in which these forces impact the individual's struggle for survival and transcendence. I had my first solo exhibition at the age of 13, a pivotal moment that sparked my ongoing pursuit of artistic expression.

Inspired by the surrealist movement, my work blends surrealism and symbolism to offer a visual dialogue between reality and the subconscious. I am continually experimenting with different mediums, yet my primary expressions remain oil on canvas and ink on paper. These mediums allow me to create works that invite viewers into strange, dreamlike worlds that challenge conventional perceptions of space, time, and identity.

WHAT I DO

Original art crafted with love,
intelligence, precision and creativity.

In my art, I feel a deep responsibility to highlight the contrasts between the inherent harmony found in nature and the often artificial constructs of modern society. I am driven to reveal the tension between the individual’s connection to the natural world and the increasingly mechanized, fragmented relationships that dominate contemporary life. Through my work, I aim to disrupt these boundaries and offer a fresh perspective, urging viewers to pause and reflect on the deeper implications of the world around them.

While my artworks speak for themselves, I hope that by presenting these themes from a unique, thought-provoking angle, I can inspire reflection and conversation, encouraging a more mindful engagement with the world and its complexities.
