My work and style? Think about Baroque Caravaggio and De Kooning with the Muppets and a story from the New York Times.
My works may appear humourous and chaotic at first glance, but when looking closer, their darker side is revealed. My paintings / public bronze sculptures focus on living in our world today: trying to survive or make sense of it all, including the craziness of humanity evoking a variety of feelings: love, sadness, alienation, loneliness, anger and anxiety. I use humour as a catalyst for entering a dialogue between my works and the viewer, inviting a broad audience, from trained art lovers to passersby and children, to engage. Some people get upset. Others love it. Talking to people without judgement is very much part of my practice.
With a background in humanitarian work for the UN and a fine arts degree earned at KABK in 2019, I craft art for the harrowing side of life; blending styles pulled from cartoons with dark social commentary, sparking meaningful dialogue and advocating for peace.
