Artist's CV

About Me

I'm an artist specializing in water and oil-based paintings, focusing on still life to explore themes of motherhood, memory, and familial relationships. My practice emphasizes the emotional resonance of familiar objects in my 2D works, conveying intimacy and personal stories. Recently, I have expanded my practice to installation art, incorporating physical objects to enhance the emotional and thematic impact of my work.
