About
Welcome to my online portfolio!
Thank you for visiting my website. If you have any inquiries or would like to discuss collaborations, feel free to reach out to me. I'm always eager to connect with fellow art lovers.
I am a visual artist working primarily with analogue collage, painting and paper cut techniques. My practice explores identity, displacement and fragmentation as lived experience rather than abstract concepts. I work with found imagery, hand-cut paper, acrylic paint and drawing, allowing material resistance, chance and physical gesture to shape each work. Process is central to my approach - slow, tactile and deliberately non-digital.
My work is informed by movement across places and environments, from urban spaces to landscapes and symbolic forms. Recurring themes include memory, transition, inner structures and the relationship between personal experience and collective space. Rather than illustrating narratives, I build visual systems where form, rhythm and layering carry meaning. Each body of work functions as part of a broader investigation into how identity is constructed, disrupted and reassembled over time.
