My work emerges from a lifelong quest that began at my mother’s dressing table — my first studio — where I discovered the delicate balance of contrasts: softness against roughness, silence filled with color.

Over the years, this search for the archetypal feminine has taken form through portraits across cultures and styles, evolving from realism to surreal narratives of inner states. Since 2022, my practice has shifted toward spontaneous mandala-like drawings in ballpoint on kraft paper, later transformed into oil on canvas.

This series, titled Anima Mundi (the soul of the world), explores the tension between simplicity and complexity, lightness and heaviness. Each work begins from a central point and grows outward, like placing the cosmos under a microscope.

I invite viewers to encounter the feminine not just as figure, but as the creative essence of nature — present in threads, tiles, leaves, seeds, and in the quiet spaces we tend to overlook.
