STATEMENT

I am captivated by old books and other forms of ephemera. My work revolves around exploring fragments from the past—uncovering their stories and weaving them into new compositions. I am drawn to materials with history, finding beauty in their worn edges and faded textures, and giving these remnants a renewed life through my artistic process.
