Art as visual reminders

I create artworks with the aim of enhancing the viewer’s life. 

Each piece I make serves a specific purpose. For example, Wishbird helps people stay focused on their goals, while A Blue Dot With a Heavy Life improves one’s mindset.

My work serves as visual reminders for personal reflection, such as paying attention to family or living more Light-Footedly. 

 

Symbolism and cheerful superstitions

My art is rich in symbolism and cheerful superstitions, often incorporating elements like robins and swallows, as well as the Nazar—the blue eye amulet traditionally believed to protect against negative influences.

Animals frequently appear in my work, not for their appearance, but for their deeper symbolic meaning. 

 

Techniques

What makes my work unique is my approach. I work in the same way I did as a graphic designer: by seeking the essence of a message, translating it into an image, and simplifying it to its core for maximum impact. 

My techniques range from painting with watercolor ink or acryllic, to screen printing, stenciling and enamel, depending on what the concept requires.

 

Inspiration

For me, it’s crucial that every piece I create adds something meaningful to the viewer’s life. 

I draw inspiration from my own daily experiences, often dealing with themes like focus, gratitude, comfort, love, adolescence, and moments of learning.

 

Something valuable

At the academy, I learned that nothing is created simply because it’s ‘fun’ or ‘beautiful,’ and I continue to carry that philosophy with me. 

Every piece is designed to help the viewer, offering them something valuable to integrate into your daily life.
