My work explores the quiet space where the conscious mind meets the unconscious, tapping into the deeper layers of inner experience through biomorphic abstraction.

Rooted in my background in wall painting and mixed media, I am drawn to how physical scale and texture can carry psychological weight. I approach painting intuitively, working past rational thought to let raw energy, memory, and organic forms take shape on the canvas.

At the heart of my practice is an ongoing dialogue between chaos and structure, the push and pull between chaotic emotion and grounding form. I want my canvases to feel alive with the subtle, pulsing rhythms of human feeling.

Ultimately, I am not trying to offer answers, but rather to create a space of encounter where viewers can pause, look inward, and connect with something deeply felt and unspoken.
