• Artist Statement

  At what point do we detach from our surroundings? At what point do we become desensitized to daily brutalities? With time, these experiences can lose their structure and impactful essence. It becomes harder to hold onto the faces and details from which the memory stands on. The details become an obscured and jumbled mess. Crushed under an endless burnt sky, a faceless and nameless figure acts as a shell holding the remnants of human experiences rooted in chaos and violence.

• Creative Statement

  Creativity spans across all ages and communities with the main purpose of expressing oneself and establishing a connection with others through feeling and shared ideas.
