During my creative process, I glide on
roller skates, infusing my artworks with
vitality and ensuring I maintain a playful
approach. I believe that adults often become
too serious andoverlook the importance of
playfulness. My aim is to counteract this
by incorporating
a playful element into my work,
which I believe leads to fresh perspectives and
new visions in paintingIn my art,
I explore the interaction between individuals
and their social environments,
questioning the role society plays in shaping
our behaviors and identities.
I reflect on how societal norms often stifle
creativity and wonder how embracing
the act of dreaming can make us more creative.
Drawing inspiration from snippets of my own
photographs, I piece together my compositions
like a puzzle,
adding layers of meaning and intrigue.
Since early 2019, I have actively participated in
exhibitions, both in galleries and virtual art
spaces.
