Visual Artist | WHO QualityRights Trainer | Mental Health Advocate
PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY
Conceptual artist specializing in surrealist collage and mixed media. My practice explores the "internal archive" of human stories, navigating the intersections of mental health, subconscious mapping, and social archetypes. With a background in marketing and photo production, I utilize my lived experience with bipolar disorder as a unique optical tool to investigate the tension between chaos and harmony in the modern world.
