ART FAIRS
Inspired by contemporary art’s ability to elevate people above the everyday, I am interested in trying to make it accessible to everyone — regardless of educational or cultural background.
In my work, I explore ordinary yet often overlooked things from daily life, using them to convey the ideas that move me.
Printmaking is an art form that is particularly special to me. On the one hand, it is a craft that I have mastered; on the other, I believe that this old technique still holds a lot of potential. With new mediums emerging and the sphere of art expanding, printmaking now offers fresh ways to tell stories about the present-day world we live in.
