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.

I explore the intersection of memory, identity, and psychological narratives, using nature's unpredictability as a foundation. By balancing chaos and form, I craft abstract, atmospheric compositions that challenge familiar perceptions and invite viewers to reflect on the evolving nature of self and reality.
"For me, painting is a way of holding fragments of self together, even when they don’t quite fit."
