Art inspiration: “My work is a process of collecting emotions in a cup, layer by layer.” Like a black hole, I explore the deep sea of emotions, balancing light, darkness, and the unconscious. Each emotion accumulates, holding within it time, love, purity, and freedom.
I believe love transcends time and space, connecting us all through the stories we share. These emotions, small but powerful, create a flow that becomes an endless energy linking us. The light within them may be uncontrollable, but it grows as I create, becoming a story of its own.
The breeze in my work symbolizes the dreams, freedom, and peace we carry. Through this, I hope to capture the true essence of love and freedom, discovering an eternal “shimmer” within. In the end, my work is about finding my truest self through the emotions I pour into each cup, and through that, connecting with the deeper truths within us all.
