The narrative in my work is often about attempts to re-establish connection with people, situations, beliefs and roots long lost or suddenly interrupted.
It is a quest to revisit unsolved encounters, revive dialogues silenced by time and reach understandings previously missed. A magic window through which, in total freedom, I can express emotions and thoughts with no reservation.
