Purchase and Contact

While the mind has no shape, it must possess some kind of form.
Rather than a perfect and balanced form, I am fascinated by imperfect and imbalanced shapes such as the Greek sculptures with missing body parts.
Acknowledging the true beauty of human beings through their imperfections could lead to respecting diversity and having tolerance towards others.
I wish to depict the darkness and wounds that people carry, and the light that filters out from within.
