My work is a celebration of the natural world, particularly its myriad shapes, colors, and the intricate relationships found within it. In my latest series, I mostly draw inspiration from sea anemones, fascinated by their dual nature as both inveterate animals and flower-like creatures.

Additionally, I am intrigued by the dual nature of sea anemones, which juxtapose their beauty with their predatory instincts. This duality intrigues me, as I am drawn to objects and concepts that blur the lines between what they are and what they appear to be.

I am also inspired by the ever-shifting emotional terrain of our lives, particularly in relation to the dynamic nature of our relationships. I reflect on the journey from joyous highs to profound sorrows that characterize these human connections. My art aims to illuminate how these different attachments manifest in our lives, shaping our experiences and perceptions of the world around us.

In addition to exploring the depths of human emotion, my artwork is a vibrant exploration of color, color combinations, and patterns. Each piece is a symphony of hues, carefully orchestrated to evoke a range of emotions and sensations. Through my art, I aim to not only capture the beauty of the natural world but also to reflect the complexities of human experience, inviting viewers to contemplate the connections that bind us all.
