ARTIST STATEMENT
I believe there to be no greater medium for expression than works of art, an idea is best spread through artwork as it allows the audience to interpret it in their own individual ways – which creates a stronger bond between art and audience. For this reason I chose art as my main means...

I'm a multi-educated individual, however, here I mentioned my education in area of the visual arts only.
