I’m a painter.

My work begins with observing the world around me — but it never ends there. It moves into a space where reality and imagination overlap, shift, and reshape each other.
In recent years, collage has become central to my practice — a way to explore color and form simultaneously through cutting, assembling, and reconfiguring.
Each painting distills a moment of recognition: when color, and shape align into something that feels both precise and unexpected.

“What I do is close my eyes and then open them again. I imagine that I had just been born, just at that moment, that I’m really seeing for the first time ever.”
