“MY ART HAS BECOME MY STORY. THE WORK IS BORN FROM A LIFELONG STRUGGLE TO ARTICULATE EMOTION; IT'S THE LANGUAGE I TURN TO WHEN WORDS FAIL ME. OVER TIME, IT HAS GROWN INTO A VISUAL DIALECT THAT DOCUMENTS A QUIET CONVERSATION BETWEEN MY UNCONSCIOUS AND CONSCIOUS. THIS ONGOING DIALOGUE IS SOMETHING WORDS ALONE COULD NEVER CAPTURE. THE WORK BECOMES A SYNTHESIS OF THOUGHTS, FORMS, AND EMOTIONS - ALL GUIDED BY PROCESS AND INTUITION. BY MERGING ARCHITECTURAL RIGOR WITH ORGANIC MOVEMENT, I’M ABLE TO CRAFT COMPOSITIONS THAT INVITE PAUSE AND CONNECTION. IT TRANSFORMS LIMITATIONS INTO OPPORTUNITIES. TO ME, NEGATIVE SPACE IS NEVER ABSENCE--IT IS INTENTIONAL, LAYERED, AND ALIVE. AT ITS CORE, MY PRACTICE REVEALS AN INTERNAL TERRAIN SHAPED BY MEMORY, VULNERABILITY, AND THE SEARCH FOR COMPOSURE, OFFERING VIEWERS A GLIMPSE INTO SOMETHING RAW AND DEEPLY HUMAN.”
