About
My art reflects my emotional world, drawing from childhood memories shaped by books and movies. It captures the imagination, nostalgia, and subconscious play, blending simplicity and complexity. I switch between landscapes, abstracts, figures, and 3D objects, enjoying the interplay of colors and shapes. Working primarily with wool and fibers, I see them as creative partners in crafting unique pieces. I thrive on challenging myself with new projects to keep the artistic journey alive. Ultimately, my art serves as a bridge between my mind and the audience, inviting interpretations and connections that enrich the creative process.
