about my work
my artistic practice is a fusion of mixed media, painting, and collage, driven by a desire to translate the energy of urban environments, nature, thoughts and feelings into layered, abstract narratives. It is a spontaneous expression of who I am in each moment, an expression of my emotions and thoughts and can also be influenced by the music I listen to. I let myself be guided by a sense of harmony or, depending on the current mood, a need to express a strong emotion like joy, sorrow or despair.
Through black ink or paint and sometimes writing, to express the “story” or emotion going on within, combined with bold colors, diverse textures, and found materials, my work embraces fragmentation and reconstruction, mirroring the rhythms of daily life and the ephemeral nature of human experience.
