My Story

I'm a multidisciplinary artist delving into the complexities of the human experience through my photography and collage art. My work aims to evoke a profound connection to both the sacred and the profane, weaving together elements of goth, renaissance, psychedelic, and surreal imagery.

Symbolic and enlightening fairy tales

Artist

My art is a visually captivating and intellectually stirring journey into the dualities within the human soul, oscillating between the angelic and demonic realms. It's a conscious exploration of the unconscious.

 

For me, beauty transcends mere superficial adornment and fleeting fantasies; it is a unique quality that emerges when the physical world intertwines with the spiritual.

I am a witness, in pursuit of beauty and freedom.

Creative process is a magic ritual

My creative process is akin to a voyage of self-discovery. Each photoshoot serves as an exploration of the unconscious, where I delve into the depths  of inner world to capture the unfiltered and untamed beauty of the human psyche.

Muse

Twenty years ago, I embarked on my photographic journey, starting with self-portraits. To this day, it remains a distinctive tool, allowing me to construct the puzzle of my art using the canvas of my mind, body, and the currents of my heart. Being my own muse isn’t about self-absorption; it’s a testament to absolute artistic honesty and the intimate, dance with the raw, unspoken aspects of who I am.

My creativity is essentially a self-portrait.

Art Direction

As a cultural researcher and scholar of religion by education, I've devoted much of my life to seeking true beauty and genuine freedom. My inspirational artistic approach utilizes a profound understanding of symbolism and aesthetics to bring a unique and powerful vision to every project.

Academically refined beauty, where form gracefully serves the essence.
