THE CLOSER YOU LOOK THE MORE YOU SEE

Mixed Media Collage

“Inspired by vintage scientific illustrations of human anatomy and nature, my collages use wallpaper to tell visual stories. I explore the interplay between nature and human creation by tearing and layering scenic, floral, and colorful wallpapers. Each piece is created to evoke a sense of nostalgia and wonder. Through my art, I invite viewers to contemplate the connections between the natural world and human creations.”
