Artist Statement
In the contemporary tapestry of our society, dynamic social and cultural focal points continuously surface, undergoing swift transformations. Within this landscape, the emerging generation grapples with the challenge of self-discovery amidst a world that is progressively insular and compliant.
As an artist, I seek to navigate this evolving milieu, exploring the intricacies of personal identity within a cultural creation sphere that orbits around a centralized nucleus.
My work endeavors to unravel the threads of introspection and address the question of locating one's identity in a constantly shifting cultural panorama, wherein the center holds a powerful gravitational force.
