“How long have I been making art?” is a question that feels as open-ended as a piece of string. Art surrounds me—shaping my thoughts through the books I read, the films I watch, the garden I tend, and the spaces I create. My practice is rooted in an aesthetic sensibility informed by drama, pathos, and self-doubt, all grounded in the fragility of existence. My methodology is exploratory and playful, much like the children I once taught. I wander, observe, and experiment, trusting that meaning emerges through the process rather than from a fixed intention.

My work engages with mental health through the lens of spiritual and popular culture tropes. Some pieces draw from iconic films, while others explore the existential anxieties that shape our experience. Through these explorations, I try to articulate the tension between searching for meaning and confronting its absence. At its core, my practice is an attempt to understand myself, confronting psychological and philosophical depths in the process. As Socrates urged, I strive to live an examined life—hoping others might find traces of their own experiences reflected in the work.
