ARTIST STATEMENT

My work seeks to illuminate the delicate balance we navigate—the invisible, fragile line between beauty and brutality. I believe art is a vessel through which life reveals its full complexity: the sweetness and sorrow, the grace and the grotesque. In this space, I endeavor to create work that not only reflects the world, but interrogates it—Existing in the space between, where the real and the expressive intersect for a better human existence.
