Summary
I am a multidisciplinary artist with a strong foundation in visual storytelling, working across photography, collage, and embodied movement. With a deep commitment to spiritual exploration and cultural immersion, my artistic practice is rooted in a process-oriented approach that emphasizes transformation and connection. Through the blending of traditional techniques and modern practices, I create dynamic, layered works that invite viewers into immersive narratives of personal growth and global understanding. Passionate about bridging cultural and creative boundaries, I seek to engage in collaborative projects that highlight the beauty of imperfection and the power of self-expression. My work is a continual exploration of mindfulness, meditation, and the intersection of art and spirituality, allowing me to foster both personal and artistic evolution.
