Artist Statement
My art is deeply personal and introspective. I often feel that my memories are like a boneyard filled with symbols that have lost their original meanings. I feel like some old modernist painter fishing out those signifiers and combining them in new narratives that frequently surprise me as well. I don't like to offer a rigid script for any of my artworks, as I strongly believe that meaning should arise from the viewer's imagination and the unique experiences they bring to the encounter. Drawing inspiration from the universal themes of human connection, wonder, and introspection, I seek to evoke a sense of what it means to be human today.
In my creative process, I frequently delve into themes encompassing human nature and psychology, spirituality, healing, queer identity, decolonization, climate change, and cultural dynamism. A significant aspect of my artistic practice is dedicated to addressing the fractured relationship humans have with other species and, consequently, with nature.
