Artist Statement
My art explores the fragile and urgent relationship between humanity and the natural world. Through varied mediums, I highlight themes of conservation, sustainability, and the interconnectedness of all living beings. By focusing on endangered species, habitat loss, and the broader impacts of human activity, I invite viewers to reflect on the consequences of our choices.
At its core, my practice is both a call to awareness and a call to action, a visual reminder of our responsibility as stewards of the Earth. Rooted in hope, my work aims to spark dialogue, inspire change, and contribute to building a more sustainable and compassionate world.
