Trapped in Anxiety, Covid 19 Print

Art has long been my means of navigating the complexities of emotion and self-expression. In my formative years, I often found it difficult to articulate my inner world, but painting became a silent yet profound language—one that allowed me to explore and release unspoken emotions. My work merges realism and surrealism, with a recurring motif of hands—a nuanced and expressive element that conveys emotion beyond the limitations of facial expression. My latest series, Finally Seen, reflects a journey of transformation, tracing the path from trauma to self-empowerment, from silence to uninhibited self-expression. Through color, composition, and movement, I translate personal experiences into visual narratives, inviting viewers to engage with their own interpretations and emotions. At its core, my art seeks to foster a sense of recognition and connection. I aim not only to share my own journey but to create a space where others feel seen, heard, and validated—a reminder that they are not alone in their experiences. Whether one finds resonance in my work or discovers an entirely personal meaning within it, my hope is that each piece serves as an invitation to reflect, feel, and embrace one’s own story.
