At the core of my work is a profound reverence for the human form—a testament to our fragile, embodied existence. The body is not merely a subject; it is a vessel of memory, emotion, and transformation. Whether rendered in chalk, silverpoint, or digital imagery, the human figure in my work captures the delicate balance between strength and vulnerability.

Living with Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS), a chronic autoimmune condition, has indelibly shaped my art. The pain, stiffness, and unpredictability of this condition are mirrored in my creative process—each line and stroke becomes a gesture of resilience, each figure a reflection of the tension between endurance and surrender.

This experience connects me to the archetype of the Wounded Healer, a concept rooted in Jungian psychology. Like the myth of Asclepius, the healer who draws wisdom from his own suffering, I draw insight from my own struggles—both as an artist and a therapist. My work is not just about capturing the beauty of the human form, but about honoring the scars, shadows, and stories that shape us.

By embracing the paradox of the Wounded Healer, I offer a space where the broken and the whole coexist. My art invites viewers to confront their own fragility and strength, to see that suffering is not merely a wound but a source of profound insight.
