About Me

My vision is to create a visual language that transcend boundaries and meaningful connections between the viewer and the artwork, to evoke a sense of shared humanity, and to inspire dialogue, reflection, and emotional resonance through the power of drawing and painting. My artistic practice embraces a range of mediums from painting and drawing to mixed media installations.
