Bio
My journey as an artist is rooted in a deep desire to create spaces of reflection and emotion. I invite viewers to pause, to wonder, and to feel.
Through my paintings, I aim to capture moments that are intimate and deeply personal — glimpses into quiet worlds where figures often turn away or close their eyes, as if caught in a dreamlike reverie.
Working primarily with oil paints and layered textures, I seek to create an atmosphere that feels both familiar and elusive, balancing between the real and the surreal.
​
The landscapes I paint are not tied to specific locations, but rather to emotions and memories. They are places that might feel known, yet remain just out of reach — mysterious, liminal spaces where time seems suspended.
​
While my main medium is oil on canvas, I also explore the expressive qualities of charcoal, using it to further delve into themes of presence and absence, memory and imagination.​
​​​Ultimately, my work is an invitation: to look closer, to sense what lies beneath the surface, and to experience the unspoken stories hidden within
each piece.
