Artist Statement:

At the core of my artistic practice is a profound exploration of identity, the fluidity of time, the nuances of perception, and the intricate social constructs that shape our daily lives. My work bridges the gap between art and life by deconstructing and reassembling familiar elements, inviting fresh perspectives and challenging ingrained assumptions.      

A central focus of my practice is the exploration of cultural translation, displacement, and the socio-economic dimensions of migration. Through layered multimedia artworks, I juxtapose multicultural, generational, and personal experiences, revealing the complex interplay between these themes. Each piece is born from meticulous research and subtle satire, blending figuration and abstraction to create works that are both enigmatic and deeply resonant.                    

I aim to create spaces for dialogue and reflection, encouraging viewers to engage with the complexities of identity, cultural heritage, and social structures. By employing diverse materials such as steel, bronze, marble, and paint, I enrich the conceptual depth of my art. These materials are chosen not only for their aesthetic qualities but for their ability to convey layered narratives about dignity, resilience, and the human experience.                                    

My goal is to prompt a deeper contemplation of how these elements shape our lives and inform our collective experience, fostering empathy and insight into the diverse stories that define our shared humanity.
