My work focuses on the interplay of light and vibrant color. I am drawn to scenes that possess a high-energy, cinematic quality—where the atmosphere feels alive and charged. Rather than focusing on literal representation, I strive to translate the emotional weight of a moment through bold hues and luminous contrasts, creating a visual narrative that pulls the viewer into the frame.

I find inspiration in the subtle differences people show and the unique ways they reflect the world around them. I am fascinated by how the same light can look completely different depending on the surface or person it touches. By exploring these reflections, contrasts, and vibrant colors, I aim to capture the specific energy of a moment and the quiet nuances that make every subject—and every person—distinct.

My priority would be family and stability. After recently losing my father, I am dedicated to bringing my mother to Canada, and I would use these funds to navigate the visa and legal process to bring her here. I would also use a portion to settle outstanding bills and ensure financial security. If any funds remain, I’d invest them into my art practice, creating a space where I can continue to develop my work while supporting my family.
