Statement

Acrylic paint is my favorite medium because it has always given me the voice I struggled to find in words. As a little girl, expressing my emotions verbally never came easily—I often kept everything bottled up. Through art, I discovered a language of my own. Painting allows me to speak without speaking, to reveal my personal struggles and triumphs, and to reflect the experiences of those around me. Each piece becomes a conversation between my inner world and the canvas, a space where I can finally let my emotions breathe.
