Artist Statement
I am a Visual Artist and Performance Artist who explores the theme of spiritual elements relating to Schizophrenia. My work is a mixture of Performing art, Video art, illustration and installation to express catharsis. My goal is to express how Schizophrenia feels like and to invite the audience to look beneath the surface of my work to discover the emotional and meaning layers that are hidden.
My own experience inspires my work. They are a reflection of my past, and struggles and are part of the human experience, they are an invitation to the viewer to reflect on their own lives and experiences.
