BIO
I am a self-taught multidisciplinary artist driven by a deep curiosity for exploring diverse genres and mediums with my practice is rooted in abstract art.
In my physical work, I often navigate the darker, more introspective aspects of the human psyche, occasionally contrasting this with mini-series that celebrate the vibrancy and joy of playing with colour.
Experimentation sits at the core of my creative process. I see it as an ongoing journey of discovery, one that invites continuous learning, growth, and unexpected outcomes.
Whether working with acrylic paint, photography, sketching, or ceramics, I am constantly refining my techniques and expanding my visual language.
Through this evolving practice, I aim to push the boundaries of my work and create pieces that feel both meaningful and dynamic.
