Artist Statement

My practice emerges from sensitivity and creativity as ways of exploring experience between environment, memory, love, and the non-place.

Through painting, drawing, image-based processes, and poetic constructions, I approach the visible world as a space where personal memory and shared experience meet. I am interested in the emotional weight of objects, places, and traces: a box, a window, a footprint, a suitcase, or a landscape can become a container for absence, longing, vulnerability, and belonging.

My work often begins with familiar elements from everyday life, but shifts them into scenes where the real and the impossible coexist in tension. I am interested in constructing images that may appear possible at first glance, yet contain strange or contradictory situations: an ocean contained inside a box, a suitcase holding a landscape, or footprints remaining as traces of an absent presence. Through realism, these scenes acquire a concrete, almost tangible appearance, as if what belongs to desire, memory, or imagination could occupy a place in the world. These images allow me to reflect on the fragile relationship between the person and their surroundings, between what is remembered and what is lost, between the place we inhabit and the place we carry within us.
