Jenny's Hands.
Jenny is a creature made only of hands and arms. An ode to instruments of creation, time, communication, and the connection between our actions and mind.

Ursula, Crossing Mountains.
Ursula, crossing mountains on her tiny legs, carrying her past selves on her back. Emotional baggage that she’s accepted now serves as protection and strength. A character of persistence.

Insomaniac
Insomaniac: Lost in a sleepless frenzy. The longer you stay awake, the more thoughts arise, blending and spilling into one another, opening up alternate realities. No solutions. You’re speeding down the fast lane into frenzy. Are you asleep or still awake? 120x80cm. Oil on canvas. December 2024.
Stacie and her swans
Stacie is a universe of opportunity without the need for a climb. It’s a declaration on not putting all your eggs in one basket. Some opportunities are symbolized by broken eggs, representing those that are lost or missed; others are undiscovered, nurtured and grown, or outgrown from the box. Meanwhile, some opportunities remain nestled within the box, waiting to be explored.
Oil on linen canvas. 100x80cm. August 2024.
When the reality is shaken,
imagination reigns.
Where the rules are bent,
life's without chains.
Letting Go
The freedom in letting go of our past selves, crushing memories, and bitter experiences—rising higher as we shed the weight of the past we've been holding onto. Letting our shadow selves burn in flames, even though we're still connected to them, and knowing the final price might cost us the only comfort we were holding onto. Oil on linen canvas. 100x100cm. Nov 2023.
