FINE ART
About
I live and create in a time when artistic freedom is both more vital and more vulnerable than ever before. I do not see art as content, nor myself as a producer of visual noise. I stand for the right to create without permission – to question, to reveal, and to remember what the world would rather forget.
As forces rise to standardize expression and reward imitation, I choose defiance through clarity. I protect the sacred act of creation not only in my own practice, but in how I support others.
I am a multidisciplinary artist working across painting and conceptual photography. And at its core is love – not as decoration, but as force.
My practice is rooted in the tension between visibility and disappearance – between what is shown and what is silenced. I use image-making not to illustrate, but to interrogate. Every work I create is an act of attention: a refusal to look away.
In painting, I work with themes of love, memory, and interiority. These are not sentimental gestures – they are excavations of what endures beneath language, beneath history. Each canvas becomes a site of devotion, where silence carries weight and intimacy becomes a form of resistance.
Through photography, especially in my ongoing #Posthuman body of work, I explore the structures that shape identity, perception, and control. These images stage the contradictions of a world obsessed with surface – revealing what power conceals, and what humanity forgets.
I do not separate emotion from intellect, or beauty from truth. I create to make visible what matters. To offer another way of seeing – one that is precise, unafraid, and alive.
It is a practice of remembering.
This work exists to challenge passive consumption, to restore attention, and to elevate dialogue over noise. It is guided by care, shaped by critical thought, and driven by a need to make visible what is too often ignored.
Art, at its best, does not decorate the world – it redefines it.
