Artist Statement:
My work is an exploration of the unknown—an intuitive process where spontaneity and discovery shape each piece. Through ink marbling, I uncover forms that transcend the mundane, revealing figures and symbols that speak to a deeper reality. Art, for me, is a meditative practice, a way to connect with something beyond the bounds of individual perception. When I surrender to the process, creation feels effortless, as though the image is unfolding rather than being constructed. Each piece carries its own presence, inviting the viewer to find their own meaning within it.
