ARTIST'S STATEMENT
​
My work is deeply inspired by the natural world and shaped by a desire to explore the liminal space between darkness and the fragility of beauty. I’m drawn to soft, feminine forms—petals, leaves, delicate gestures—and often photograph them against dark or black backgrounds. I create from a place of feeling. My images are quiet invitations inward, toward sensuality, mystery, and emotion.
​​
Whether working in photography, collage, ceramics, or design, my work seeks to evoke what emerges when we linger long enough in the mystery–a place that is luminous and alive.
