Experience my inner work
​
My work translates sound into visual form.
Music becomes color, rhythm becomes structure, and emotion shapes each composition. The faces shift and fragment, reflecting the space between inner experience and outward identity.
These works are not about seeing music, but feeling it.

The inner child portrait
Ribs (after Lorde) translates the emotional landscape of Ribs into color and form, guided by a shared sense of synesthetic perception. The composition moves between softness and fragmentation, where bright, almost childlike tones surface through a more controlled and structured outer form.The work reflects a tension between past and present. The outer figure remains composed, holding shape and stability, while the inner layers begin to loosen, revealing something more instinctive and unfiltered. It is not a return to the inner child, but an allowance for it to exist within the current self.Rather than breaking apart, the piece holds both states at once

Merging into adulthood
This piece reflects the transition into adulthood as a process of quiet transformation. Inspired by Adult Swim, the work explores how identity is shaped over time, not through sudden change, but through gradual layering and adaptation.
​
Organic forms grow across the figure, merging softness with structure. What once feels fluid and open begins to settle into defined patterns, suggesting how experiences leave lasting imprints on the body and self. The figure stands upright, almost restrained, while the surrounding elements continue to evolve.
​
Adulthood is not presented as a fixed state, but as something continuously forming, where growth and constraint exist at the same time.

Claiming space
This piece is about confidence as something claimed rather than given. Inspired by Who Is That Calling, I wanted to capture the moment of standing in your own presence without apology.
​
The gaze is direct, almost challenging, as if the figure is meeting both the viewer and themselves at the same time. Strong lines, saturated color, and sharp contrasts hold the posture upright, while expressive textures and patterns show the inner movement beneath that composure.
​
For me, this work reflects the shift from questioning yourself to trusting your own voice. Not as loud confidence, but as something quiet, steady, and self-defined.

Unfinished business
This piece reflects the feeling of carrying unresolved parts of myself. The expression is present, but not at ease. The gaze sits between awareness and uncertainty, as if something remains unspoken or incomplete.
​
The layered forms move across the figure like thoughts that won’t settle. Some areas feel sharp and defined, while others blur or drift away, creating tension between control and what is still unresolved. The patterns around the body push forward and pull back at the same time, suggesting movement without full release.
​
For me, this work holds the weight of things left unfinished, the questions that linger, and the parts of myself still in process. It isn’t about closure, but about living with what is not yet resolved.

El Canto
This piece is about surrendering to feeling without needing to define it. When I listen to El Canto, I experience it as something soft but expansive, where emotion moves freely without resistance.
​
The figure leans into that openness. There is no tension in the posture, only a sense of release and presence. Color flows gently across the body and into the space around it, as if the boundaries between self and environment begin to dissolve. The surrounding forms feel light and atmospheric, like emotions that drift rather than settle.
​
For me, this work reflects a moment of letting go. Not searching, not holding on, but simply allowing myself to exist within the feeling.

Layering
This piece is about the coexistence of different identities within one presence. When I listen to Enigma, I experience a layering of cultures, sounds, and histories that don’t separate, but merge into something unified.
​
In this work, I translate that into structure and contrast. Different patterns, tones, and visual rhythms move across the face, each carrying its own identity, yet existing within the same form. Some elements feel grounded and traditional, while others interrupt or shift the surface, creating a dialogue rather than a division.
​
For me, this piece reflects how identity is not singular or fixed. It is built from multiple influences, experiences, and perspectives that exist together at the same time. Not in conflict, but in balance

Temporal Drift
This piece reflects how I experience Pink + White as something soft, fragmented, and distant. It feels like looking back at a moment that is already slipping away, where memory and emotion don’t fully hold together.
​
The figure is broken into separate parts, suspended rather than fixed. Each fragment carries its own tone, but they no longer fully connect, creating a sense of quiet disorientation. The colors remain gentle and almost nostalgic, while the structure itself feels incomplete.
​
For me, this work is about the way memories shift over time. Not disappearing, but losing their solidity. What remains is a feeling that lingers, even when the full picture is no longer there
