My art is a bold and unapologetic reflection of who I am. 

I express myself through a dynamic variety of mediums including painting, drawing, illustration, silkscreen, etching, linocut, embroidery and music.

I dive deep into the psyche of my generation, exploring themes of identity, rebellion, and the journey towards authenticity. Creating in various forms is not just an artistic endeavor, but a personal journey of self-discovery and growth.

Rooted in migration, my work embodies the spirit of wanderlust within me, blending influences  from diverse lands and cultures. My biggest inspirations come from the raw and real: friends, urban lifestyle, collected objects and surroundings, traces and a deep fascination for nature.
