My journey into black and white art began as a way to cope with profound change. Moving away from a home rich in art and music to an unfamiliar place left me overwhelmed and searching for a sense of connection. I turned to drawing when I found myself unable to express the mix of emotions I was feeling. Using charcoal, graphite, and ink, I discovered a quiet language to release feelings that were too heavy to speak.

In my practice, abstraction allows me to confront complex emotions while keeping a protective distance. Art becomes a space where I can let go of what’s inside without revealing everything. I work on large scales, covering the walls with paper and pouring out whatever I feel. When I’m done, I tear it down—a simple act of release and detachment.
