Once Upon a Time in a Land Far Away" is a delicate watercolor painting capturing a poignant moment in time before the upheaval of war and my family's journey to Canada. In this light, high-key composition, my mother's face gently fades into a soft, ethereal background, symbolizing a time of innocence and peace. The subtle blending of colors creates a dreamlike quality, evoking the nostalgia of a distant past and the beauty of a life before a significant change.

My work is rooted in memory and lived experience. I build images that shift between presence and fragmentation, allowing instability to remain visible. Rather than fixing form, I let it emerge and adjust through process, guided more by perception and emotional atmosphere than by narrative clarity.
"I paint in the space between chaos and structure, where images are built, unsettled, and continually renegotiated."
