Art that emerges from a necessity to make visible
what was silenced for way too long.
After a traumatic childhood shaped by survival through compliance and making myself invisible, my body eventually forced a rupture. Painting became the place where I stopped disappearing. What began as a search for safety evolved into an ongoing confrontation with emotional flashbacks, coping mechanisms and
the cautious hope of transformation.
My work originates from a personal history of trauma and survival through self-erasure. Painting has become the space where I confront what has been suppressed. And now I want to speak up and be heard. Working with paint allows me to translate psychological tension into physical form — through gesture, repetition, and material presence. The canvas functions as a site of negotiation between vulnerability and resistance, where I attempt to visualize internal processes that have remained unseen.
