ARTIST STATEMENT

I paint the quiet friction between the human form and the natural world, exploring the internal and external obstacles that shape who we are. My work reflects both the beauty and the heavy, complex challenges of navigating life. While watercolour is traditionally used for its transparency, I intentionally apply it opaquely—building up dense, rich layers to give physical weight to the stories and symbolism in each piece.

My process is deeply introspective and rooted in personal experiences. By blending human figures with elements of nature, I create a visual narrative that invites viewers to pause, look more closely, and find echoes of their own struggles and resilience within its layers—fostering a quiet space for connection and contemplation.
