The Spark of Connection. Why I Paint

                
I’ve always had a natural instinct for communication. Perhaps it was the long hours spent reading during my early years, or my mother’s constant emphasis on literature and poetry, I’m not entirely sure. But what I do know is that my instinct has always been to connect, to express, to reach out.

Art, too, has always been an innate part of me. I’ve never been able to see life quite like everyone else,
perhaps that’s the essence of an artist's mind: perceiving the world through a peculiar, deeply personal lens. And it is this blend of instincts, to communicate and to create, that drives me to reach out to you.
The artist's mind perceives the world through
a peculiar, deeply personal lens.

When I seek connection through my paintings, I’m searching for that spark, that fragile yet powerful thread of empathy that links two people through a shared moment of recognition. It might happen through a gesture, a glance, a particular light, or the quiet symbolism embedded in my work. But at its core, it’s always about resonance: when the silent narrative of a painting finds a mirror in the viewer’s own inner world.

Each piece I create carries that intention. It is not only an exploration of identity, emotion, or transition, as many of my works often are, but also an open hand extended towards anyone who finds meaning within it.

Thank you for being here, for seeing, for allowing that spark of connection to happen.
