"I deeply believe in the intrinsic connection between humanity and nature. We are intertwined with the air, water, and earth, mirroring nature in behaviors, movements, and attitudes. This profound link often goes unnoticed, but it is a truth I strive to capture in my art. Each piece is an exploration of this unity, inviting viewers to recognize the parallels between our lives and the natural world."
