ABOUT:
My work is a raw, unfiltered exploration of survival, identity, and systemic failure. I create because it feels necessary, to reclaim my voice, to process trauma, and to confront the realities that many overlook or deny. My art isn’t polished for comfort, it’s honest, sometimes uncomfortable, and always grounded in lived experience.
I draw deeply from my personal history and cultural roots, weaving narratives of resilience and resistance through visual and written layers. Whether through vivid imagery or blunt storytelling, I aim to expose the cracks in systems that were supposed to protect but instead abandoned me, and countless others, and also celebrate the beauty in between.
Ultimately, my art is a space of reclamation. It is where I make sense of pain, reclaim power, and challenge viewers to see beyond the surface. I don’t create to be palatable: I create to be real. Because sometimes, the truth is the most radical thing we can share.
