ARTIST STATEMENT
I show my life stories through many lenses and find a space to cope with my family’s health issues through my art.
Open the curtain to see a beautiful ocean. The curtain is your mind. It is blinded, not free, like in our reality. The ocean is our dream place and afterlife.
My dad is getting weak and aging so I search for meaning.
I compare his journey with the mystery of nature like plants and water.
