My work begins with the body in an unfamiliar room — the dinner table that is both intimate and charged, the institutional space where belonging is never assumed. Through drawing, painting, and sculpture, I use these charged sites as points of entry into larger questions: how identity shifts when context shifts, what is disclosed and what is concealed, and how home becomes something you construct rather than inherit.
Drawing from staged theatrical and cinematic vocabularies, the work renders the tension between inclusion and exclusion — examining social structures of belonging, translation, and power. I move between center and periphery, occupying both artist and observer simultaneously.
Painting and drawing function as languages that exceed verbal articulation. Vulnerability is a deliberate strategy: the work remains open to transformation as cultural contexts shift and new meanings emerge.
