Artist Statement

Through my figurative paintings, I delve into the profound complexities of identity and representation. Drawing inspiration from personal experiences, cultural influences, and the diverse narratives of individuals, my work celebrates the richness and diversity of humanity, while examining the societal constructs that shape our understanding of self.

My artistic process involves capturing moments of vulnerability, strength, and self-reflection in my subjects. I employ a combination of realism and imaginative elements to convey emotion, resilience, and the power of self-expression. By juxtaposing elements of realism with abstraction and symbolism, I challenge the viewer to look beyond the surface and explore the complex layers of human experience.
