I am a self-taught artist and street-based photographer, drawn to the quiet spaces between what is seen and what is overlooked. I walk not merely to witness, but to read—to sense the unseen behind the visible, to hear what lingers beneath what is spoken, and to notice what most pass without pause. My camera becomes a way of listening, while my mixed media becomes a way of speaking back.
Through street photography, I gather fragments of reality—fleeting gestures, silent corners, and unnoticed rhythms. Through my paintings, I reshape these fragments, allowing emotion, memory, and intuition to move beyond the literal. I do not aim to document the world as it is, but to interpret it as it feels—like a poem unfolding in layers, where texture becomes language and silence carries weight.
I am committed to evolving continuously, believing in vertical growth rather than horizontal expansion—going deeper into the same questions rather than wider across many. When I paint or photograph, I often enter a space where a subtle, shimmering sensation emerges, as though I have stepped into or created a new land. These are not abstractions to me; they are places I can see, feel, and inhabit, even if they are not immediately apparent to others.
My work began in a space of pain and gradually moved toward joy, though neither is ever fully separate from the other. I see art not as a question, nor as an answer, but as an ongoing process—something that cannot be resolved or concluded. In the same way that heat cannot be separated from fire, the act of making cannot be separated from being.
I am deeply interested in the power of stillness. An object at rest can hold a force equal to something in motion—stillness, to me, is another form of speed, one that exists without visible force. In my work, I allow emotion to move beyond rigid geometries; sometimes these structures are clearly visible, and at other times they remain implied, buried beneath layers, waiting to be felt rather than seen.
My practice exists in the space between reality and perception, between what is visible and what is deeply experienced—an attempt to give form to something that resists definition, yet insists on being felt.
