Artist Statement

My practice exists between painting, fashion, and performance. I’m interested in how a painting can move beyond a wall or screen and become something that is worn, lived in, and experienced.

I create original digital paintings that I transform into textile designs and clothing, allowing the artwork to take on a new life through the person wearing it. The body becomes part of the composition, and each wearer brings their own presence and identity into the work.

This relationship between painting and the body also continues through my mirror paintings. Wearing my own designs, I paint directly onto mirrors with acrylics, using my reflection as part of the work. The painting, clothing, body, and reflection come together within the same image, blurring the boundary between artist, subject, and artwork.

Spontaneity is an important part of my practice. In my live painting, I create portraits of people in around five minutes, working directly with acrylics without sketches. Rather than trying to reproduce someone realistically, I intuitively capture their energy, expression, style, and what they are wearing in my own visual language. The encounter itself becomes part of the artwork.

Across these different forms, I don’t see painting, fashion, and performance as separate disciplines. They are different ways for my art to exist.

For me, art isn’t meant to stay still. It can move, be worn, be performed, and become part of everyday life. Most importantly, it can create moments of connection between people—turning art from something we simply look at into something we can experience together.
