The Human Condition

My work is deeply rooted in self‑expression and my ongoing struggles with mental health, and the journey that has shaped who I am today. I work heavily in mixed media, abstraction, and cubism, using these forms to break apart and rebuild the emotions I can’t always articulate in words. Each piece becomes an externalization of internal experience—an attempt to find the feeling, the shape, or the image when language falls short. Through layered materials, fractured forms, and intuitive mark‑making, I explore how identity is formed, disrupted, and reassembled, inviting viewers into the raw, shifting spaces where healing and self‑understanding begin.
