Triumph of the Spirit
Artist Statement
As a conceptual artist, I question external limitations that define our
existence, often shaped by dominant social perspectives. I explore various human struggles, such as the cultural context we are DNA’d into, the gender assigned to us, and the urgent need to protect our planet. My goal is to reveal the tension in our lives through a process of deconstruction and reconstruction. I create paintings, sculptures, and installations highlighting the beauty embedded in the triumph of the spirit.
