Statement:
Unlike many artists, my encounter with art did not come at a young age. In fact, I first came across art at a time between adolescence and adulthood. A crossing point where I faced the unfamiliar inner struggles for the first time, and was rescued by a sudden fever of creativity. I fought my war, hand in art and at such extreme times, it was my hero and savior beyond measure.

There and then, was where I started my long personal journey in search of self-identity and freedom of the thought, the do and the be. Undoubtedly, throughout the road, as an infinite companion, art guided me to where I am today.

In this day and time, I continue to walk along this path and despite the occasional evanescence of creativity; I always know art will be meeting me somewhere down the road.
