Recent Work

Lately, I’ve been obsessed with the natural world, not as it exists, but as it might exist. Through fluid, leaf-like lines, vivid floral motifs, and rich textures, I construct lush landscapes that hover between reality and fantasy. Shapes intertwine and evolve across the canvas, dissolving clear boundaries and encouraging multiple interpretations. Drawing viewers into these imagined ecosystems, my work explores the tension between the recognizable and the strange, inviting them to wonder whether they are looking at a distant memory of Earth or a glimpse of another world entirely.
