My artistic practice is an exploration of creating portals into other worlds, where I serve as a conduit or medium for forces beyond myself. These forces speak through me, using imagery as a form of communication. I am deeply inspired by investigating this phenomenon and questioning the driving energy behind these drawings. Nature serves as both my muse and a source of renewal, allowing me to recharge my creative force. By immersing myself in its rhythms, I become attuned to the subtle patterns—the delicate veins of a leaf, for instance—that often go unnoticed. These intricate details inspire me, and I strive to echo their essence throughout my work.
