ARTIST’S STATEMENT
As an immigrant myself, and also a member of the LGBTQ community I’ve faced years of self doubt, discrimination and in a way a lack of opportunities based on the stated before. It has been only in the past two years when my career and exposure has turned into a great place. As an artist, having the platform to showcase my artwork and share my art with the larger community will mean that people can get exposed to a different way of seeing the world. My work shows a deep, nostalgic and human side to life.
