"These new paintings transport viewers to supernatural realms beyond the constraints of time and space, where hierarchies and protagonists dissolve. Each artwork serves as a tribute and mirror to the enchanting tapestry of our natural world, inviting contemplation of our interconnectedness within the universe's intricate dance. Rooted in ancestral homage, these works honor my maternal lineage, nurturing transformation through dance, communication, and self-expression.
Through playful storytelling, these lush landscapes reveal majestic plant spirits, mischievous banshees, neon portals and earthly goddesses. They stand as tributes to the divine feminine and the alchemy of transmutation, inviting the curious to explore their vibrant animistic world where Earthly beings and anthropomorphic flora and fauna peacefully coexist."
