„Painting gave me an outlet to express myself freely again.“

Her large-format paintings are fascinating not only because of the brushwork reminiscent of a colored pencil but also because of the narrative representation of the motifs. Her Symbolist-influenced painting conjures suggestive images in which intimacy and radical strangeness are delicately balanced in a practice she sees as an ongoing personal diary. Having worked in illustration and graphic design after her studies, she began to paint in 2020 as a way of breaking free of commissioned work.
