Artist statement
I construct personal mythologies by creating multilayered narratives that blur the boundaries between reality and fantasy. Through paintings and objects, I build emotional spaces that activate the viewer’s personal experiences and invite them to search for connections between symbols, metaphors, and reality.

My dream world is a space where absurdity and chaos expand the limits of consciousness, where questions dissolve into emptiness, and every decision seems to have already been made. Can the viewer influence it? In my projects, the process of self-discovery and the search for inner harmony are expressed through transforming figures and symbols. I guide the viewer through a "garden of illusions" until they realize that every path is a distorted play of perception.
