Artist Statement.

 

​

My work is a visual exploration of strength, resilience, and transformation. Each piece tells the story of virtue unfolding through struggle—where challenges are not obstacles, but opportunities for growth. The fight to overcome is reflected in the contrasts within the work, symbolising how we can rise above both experience and emotion. It is a quiet, internal war of surrender. It is a process of sitting with experiences and allowing them to be seen anew.

​

My artistic practice mirrors this journey. Each piece builds upon layers with elements of earlier stages intentionally left exposed. This revealing the transparency of their origin as experience itself and how we are shaped and refined through it. The journey I depict is not linear, but cyclical, layered, and intricate. The interplay of color, texture and form highlights this layered narrative, suggesting depth and complexity in both form and meaning.

​

Through the work, I seek to transform old stories into new ones, celebrating the beauty found in resilience and the power of change.​​ As a visual monologue of emotion, each canvas becomes an act of self-expression. My hope is that the work creates space for others to sit with their own past and to recognize that transformation is not about escaping, rather about integrating, understanding and ultimately, rising above. It is in this integration that true resilience is born.
