ARTIST STATEMENT

I am obsessed with sourcing and putting different objects and materials onto any surface whilst experimenting with its texture, color and composition — there’s always an element of surprise which I find very exciting and addicting. I often combine figuration, abstraction and collage in my work to see how it would co-exist, in the hopes that it would eventually give any kind of meaning.
