Artist Statement

Fascinated by the human nature, caricatures have been a great medium to express the character and essence of people, as well as a great practice. As well as caricatures, I come up with more personal work that have deeper meaning for me, using the metaphors of the ocean to describe my connection to nature and the sacred feminine.
