My art practice is grounded in my memories and emotions. In my paintings I express various emotions in a variety of forms, which are layered, built, and composed in the space of the canvas to represent what I was feeling during that moment. My compositions have an organic quality, often incorporating geometric shapes, textures, and balanced colours and tones with occasional bold contours. My artwork serves as a harmonious reflection of my memories and emotions, providing a filter through the way in which I perceive the world.

My paintings tell stories of traveling between memories and imagination and reflect a message of unity and diversity of culture and values in our society. I believe that it is very important for people to balance each other out. I convey the importance of harmony in our society through my art, just as every living being in nature blooms distinctly but harmoniously. I hope for peace and prosperity in this society that I depict.
