Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in people, cities, and movement — especially the energy of places like New York and my travels around the world. I’m deeply inspired by cinema, music, and human emotion, as well as fleeting moments of beauty, intimacy, and tension. My work often reflects personal experiences and the inner world of a woman navigating life, art, and connection.
What would you do with $25,000?I would invest it into my art and the development of a cultural space — creating work, building a strong portfolio, and bringing people together through curated artistic experiences. For me, art is both personal expression and the foundation of a larger vision.
