Artist Statement

I am a writer and street artist.

My work playfully disrupts what a polite society tries to hide: mental health, protest, and small voices. 

I’m drawn to what hasn’t been said—whether that’s the myth of physical beauty, the messy reality of healing, forgotten historical figures, or buried family pain.

My goal isn’t just to create, but to provoke empathy, challenge assumptions, and help build a more humane future through truth-telling. Because healing isn’t passive—and it isn’t always beautiful. It’s loud, disruptive, and demands to be seen.
