My work is guided by intuition and a fascination with connection — both the kind we recognize with the eye and the kind we sense only inwardly. Through layered colour, light, and subtle movement, I explore the emotional and energetic threads that link us to ourselves, to others, and to the spaces we inhabit. Each painting becomes a quiet field where the visible and the invisible meet, inviting the viewer to slow down, to feel, and to engage with what cannot always be named. In this intersection of presence and perception, my practice seeks to reveal the depth and delicacy of the connections that shape us.

My work is inspired by the spaces where emotion, energy, and inner awareness intersect. I am drawn to themes of connection — the visible bonds we recognise in others, and the invisible ones we sense only within. Light, softness, and subtle movement guide my process, allowing each piece to emerge as a quiet reflection of presence, memory, and the delicate shifts of the inner landscape. Through these themes, I seek to explore how we relate to ourselves, to each other, and to the unseen forces that shape our human experience.
