Artist Statement

I translate all I see into positive energy when it comes to making art, my work motto is “Make happy images”.

I enjoy researching how everyone lives differently to one another, to explore alternative sub cultures in both real world and online. To question how we evolved as humans in terms of personal power. My interest is to capture these subtle activities and draw it with pink, green and blue.

I find conventional habits interesting especially when one starts to become obsessed with it. Aside from figures, I like to document curious objects and architectures through studying their forms, patterns and lines.

My work involves drawings, printmaking, craft and installation with the aim to create positive energy like a lucky crystal ornament, something people will enjoy to look at and to have.
