Description

This piece was made in the studio, with cut-paper collage, acrylic paint, ink, glue and graphite. After collecting information in the form of sketches and memories from outside, I fuse these findings with my playful, day-dreaming mind. In these works I seek to tell specific stories where nature has acted as a mediator in moments of struggle or tension. Dramatic light suggests illumination of spiritual experience.
