I grew up surrounded by stories. My family shared memories constantly — some joyful, some painful — and those stories shaped how I see the world. I didn’t always know I would become an artist, but I always knew I was paying attention. I was observing textures, colors, gestures, silences. Looking back, I realize that those early experiences became the foundation of my work. I create from memory, but not in a nostalgic way. I’m interested in how memory changes, how it fragments, and how it can be rebuilt through art.
