STATEMENT
Art has been an essential part of my life since childhood. I create from a deep need for non-verbal communication and emotional connection. My goal is to move the viewer – to evoke reflection, stir emotions, sometimes bring discomfort, other times offer calm. I want my work to resonate, engage, and open space for contemplation and contact with the inner world.
