I am intrigued by what lies beyond the seemingly apparent, particularly the emotional undercurrents and lingering memories that operate beneath the surface of our lives. My multi-layer constructions, with varying levels of opacity, feature figures and motifs that are visible only through a foggy lens, where viewers can peer into the deepest recesses. Intentionally enigmatic, my symbology is one where, just as in dreams, laws of logic are broken in the name of emotional impact, and the stories that unfold are ripe with mystery and metaphor.
