Oil Paintings

My practice looks into performance and staging as tools to explore identity and states of being through constructed, dream logic scenes. Rather than only working from direct observation, I rely on intuition, collage-making, memory, and personal symbolism to build spaces that resist clear narrative. Animals, especially dogs and lambs, often appear as proxies for the self, allowing me to approach emotion, desire, vulnerability, and exposure indirectly.

Staging plays a central role in my process, shaping narrative, perspective, and composition to produce a sense of theatricality and psychological distortion. The resulting scenes sit between recognition and estrangement, where meaning is felt rather than explained. I often use absurdity and subtle humor to reflect lived experience while opening imaginative spaces of escape and reinterpretation.
