I am a multidisciplinary artist whose work delves into the intersections between productivity and obsession. Using a variety of mediums, I create pieces that invite viewers to reflect on the intensity with which we pursue purpose and the fine line between ambition and fixation. Often drawing from my own lived experiences, my practice embodies a personal exploration of these themes, capturing the paradoxes and complexities of our daily drives. My work seeks to provide both a mirror and a window, offering viewers the chance to see themselves and new perspectives in the interplay of dedication and compulsion.

Subtle Greif

Paint and Hand Crafted Woodworks on Plastered Wall

“Subtle Grief” is a personal tribute, merging bold text with handcrafted woodwork to explore the complex, often unseen dimensions of mourning. The word “grief” spans a red wall, a colour as raw and relentless as loss itself. This piece was born from frustration when external circumstances disrupted another work, pushing me to confront diverse grieving processes. While some mourn openly, I channel my grief through creation, a quieter process often mistaken for detachment. The wood elements honour my late grandfather, grounding me in his memory. "Subtle Grief" embodies a journey through loss, relentless yet softened by creation and legacy.
