Celebrating my family and cultural heritage is central to my work, and by reconstructing and sharing fragments of my family archive alongside personal photographs, illustrations, and motifs—I weave together a narrative that acknowledges and honors my roots. Central to my work is the exploration of tender, colorful moments of contemplation and togetherness that exist within kinship. I am drawn to creating mixed-media collages that capture these ephemeral, intimate experiences. Each work serves as an attempt to render Love tangible, transforming abstract spiritual and emotional experiences into visible forms. This process is deeply personal, revealing my curiosity about my connections to those familiar figures in my life and how these relationships shape my sense of home and belonging, regardless of where I find myself geographically.
