My practice explores female identity, emotional transformation, and impermanence through dark, dreamlike narratives. Working with digital painting, I treat texture, form, and color with deep sensitivity. I build custom digital brushes and unique backgrounds to create unsettled, multi-layered visual metaphors. My surreal compositions blur the boundary between reality and subconsciousness, featuring split figures, organic elements, and hybrid forms. These haunting images evoke conflicting emotions, inviting viewers into an uncomfortable intimacy. Grounded in a strong sense of craftsmanship, I transform these digital works into physical objects using archival Giclée prints on fine art paper. Through this process, I turn fleeting internal states into tangible, timeless artifacts that challenge perception.
