Project Statement

I experience my work as an ongoing personal experimentation on light, color, shape, and composition.
My colorful, imaginative, and often spontaneous visions are carefully constructed by hand as multi-layered scenes, offering a pathway out of reality while still being part of it.
The photographs I create maintain a warmth stemming from their imperfections (there’s no photo manipulation other than occasional basic adjustments), gently revealing the marks of my presence.
Colors and shapes carry their own profound depth and meaning. Light has the power to reveal it by creating fluidity and motion. The thrill of bringing them together is what drives me to my endless exploration.
