ARTIST VOICE
I’m drawn to things that are often overlooked — textures, fragments, quiet gestures. My work begins with photography and drawing, each offering a different way of sensing the world.
I use photography and risography to build emotional landscapes — spaces that are expressive, tactile, and layered. These images carry texture, rhythm, and a kind of raw presence. They allow imperfections to surface, creating a deeper sense of realness.
In parallel, my drawings are more intimate and rooted in the body. I explore fragmented forms of skin or body. These works hold a soft tension, inviting closeness without full disclosure. Drawing allows me to slow down and stay in that internal space, where emotion becomes shape.
I work in a series I call collections, each one unfolding around themes of memory, intimacy, and transformation. I gather textures from urban or natural environments, and take portraits that capture in-between moments. Through layering and recomposition, I let the images shift and speak to each other. The result is not a fixed truth, but an evolving archive of emotional and spatial memory. Risography brings a visual directness I’m drawn to — its grain, color shifts, and energy connect back to graphic culture. I reframe that language within a fine art context, where the everyday becomes heightened. In the end, I want the viewer to feel close by sensing what lies just beneath it.
