As I stand on the edge of adulthood, my work has become a way of understanding what it means to exist in a state of constant transformation and change. I explore the tension that exists between past, present, and future, and how identity forms, fractures, and reforms through memory, emotion, and everyday experience. In my work, I try to give form to that process, to show how we’re constantly rewriting ourselves through what we carry and what we choose to let go. The feeling of nostalgia fascinates me as not only something to be preserved or glorified, but as a fragment of being, a relic that shapes who people become, and why they become in the first place.


My work is deeply interdisciplinary, spanning design, drawing, collage, and photography in the pursuit of answering a question with no simple answer: how do you define change? I treat mediums not as boundaries, but as languages that overlap and inform one another, and give way to work that is both deeply personal and hauntingly universal. I’m drawn to the tension between the mundane and the sacred, the personal and the collective, creating works that act both as artifacts of feeling and living embodiments of the human condition. Through this, I aim to hold a mirror not just to memory, but to the present moment, the snapshot in time where the echoes of yesterday stand with the seeds of tomorrow.


Ultimately, my work exists not only as a reflection of change but as an invitation to enter a space of discovery and rediscovery, where past, present, and future converge in constant dialogue.
