Space is the realm where my worldly views, shaped by various experiences, define the reality I inhabit. In my art, I aim to capture this dichotomy. By balancing mixed media, I discover my unique style. I combine sketched objects, magazine clippings, watercolors, and acrylic paints to create depth through layers. My creative process does not follow a specific theme or order; instead, my artwork absorbs the world around me. This creative window offers a glimpse into how I envision life and the universe.
At times, my collage work focuses on a central theme, enveloped in several layers of paper. My creations often straddle the line between collage and mixed media. Each item and layer is carefully considered. I pay close attention to contrasting colors, whether they are from paper or paint, and I am meticulous about each layered object's form, flow, and function.
Scanning my creations at a high high resolution allows me to present a surreal world of its own, showcasing visual diversity and duality. My style can be appreciated on any level, whether micro or macro, and possesses the visual diversity to resonate with people of all ages and cultures. I continuously strive to push my creative boundaries, aiming to impact, evoke, question, and inspire those who view my work.
