Artist Statement
The goal of my artwork is to explore and share emotional experiences through my visual adventures in painting, photography, and sculpture. I aim to show the connection between our daily encounters with our natural, social, and mental environments. When engaging with my artwork, I am inspired by the details of nature, social issues, and the mental state that provide me with a sense of wonder and capture the exploration of emotion in my art. I am also inspired by Florence Nightingale’s environmental theory, which is based on the concept that a healthy environment is essential for healing. This environment is a connection between our daily encounters that directly affect our physical and mental healing through tackling and exploring environmental, social, and mental issues. Experiencing nature, engaging in society, and exploring mental issues to the fullest has allowed me to capture emotions and stories through my range of works. I continue to learn from the beauty, wonder, and complex nature of our environment as I share this exploration of emotions with the world.
