Artist Note

Dialogue with Nature and the Inner Self

As an artist, the mountains, trees, sea, and rocks from my childhood memories became the roots of my painting practice. At the same time, my work as a therapeutic practitioner—listening to and communicating with others’ inner worlds over many years—has given me another way of seeing: a deeper gaze into the human mind.


Layers of Healing Beyond Language

Through years of working in both art and counseling, I learned that some forms of healing exist beyond the reach of language. The process of layering colors, then adding and removing them again and again, becomes a quiet conversation—one that carries emotions beyond words.


A Space Where Sincerity Stays

Through exhibitions in Europe, I experienced that sincerity—communication and comfort—can be shared beyond cultural and linguistic boundaries. I hope my work can offer you, even for a moment, a sense of comfort and empathy.
