My practice is rooted in the way I observe and think about the world. I often begin with the microcosm of objects, using familiar and concrete forms to approach larger questions. Through painting, I explore the idea of connection — between the individual and the world, between people, and between what we understand and what remains unknown.
I often find myself asking: Why? And then: Why am I always asking why? I do not believe that I fully understand the world, yet I remain curious about the patterns and relationships that exist beyond our understanding. Nature is an ongoing source of inspiration, particularly the unrestricted curves and directions of growth found in plants and living forms.
I develop a visual language through familiar forms, placing them within spaces between the real and the imagined.
My practice seeks a balance between intuition and reason. I appreciate restraint in art, and see painting as a way of remaining connected to the world, continually questioning it and trying to understand it.

我的创作建立在我观察和思考世界的方式之上。我常常从微观的物件出发，去表达更宏观的问题。在绘画中，我探寻“连接”——个体与世界、人与人之间，以及我们与已知和未知之间的连接。
我常常问自己：为什么？然后又会想：我怎么总是在问为什么？我知道自己并不真正理解这个世界，但我始终对那些存在于我们认知之外的规律与联系保持好奇。自然是我持续的灵感来源，尤其是植物与生物的形态，那些不受规训的曲线与生长轨迹。
我通过熟悉的物件建立自己的视觉语言，将它们置于真实与想象之间的空间中。
我在感性与理性之间寻找平衡。我欣赏克制的艺术，绘画是我与世界保持联系、不断提出问题并尝试理解这个世界的方式。
