Bio

As a foreigner living in France, my creative practice is shaped by both admiration and frustration. Navigating cultural tension, identity, and displacement. My work is unapologetic, political, and noisy.

Ech.

Digital

42 X 29.7 X cm

This started with a quick photo on the metro. I saw the word “Ech.” next to the window and something about it just felt... off, but in a way that stuck with me. Like a noise you make when you're tired or stuck in your head. When I looked at it later, it felt like this weird little moment of emotion in a super structured, impersonal space. The sharp lines, the flat colors. They’re all metro system. But that tiny “Ech.” felt human, like a quiet pause in the middle of the routine.

Civic Body

Digital

42 X 29.7 X cm

This piece started with a quick moment. I saw a garbage man in Paris who just looked effortlessly cool. He had sunglasses on, cap turned backwards, and something about his presence made me snap a picture. But while drawing him later, I started thinking more critically about that moment. I realized I’d taken his photo without asking, like he was just part of the city’s background instead of a person with his own story. That made me reflect on how we sometimes stop seeing people, especially those doing essential jobs, as individuals. They kind of become extensions of the systems they work in. That’s what inspired the title Civic Body. It’s about how a person can feel absorbed into the identity of the city they serve. The visual distortion, with his body almost merging into the architecture, is meant to show that fusion: the fading of personal identity into something bigger, impersonal, and structural.

Metro (4) 1

Digital

42 X 29.7 X cm

This piece is based on the Paris Métro Line 1. I titled it Metro (4) 1 as a play on how people can feel completely alone even when they’re surrounded by others. Personally, I’ve often felt more isolated the busier the metro gets, like everyone’s in their own bubble, disconnected, just passing through each other’s space without really being present. I wanted to show that weird tension, the chaos of lights and motion around a single empty seat. For me, it’s like the metro becomes this tunnel of noise and color, but emotionally it feels kind of muted, like you’re just floating through it. Paris is known as the city of love, but sometimes I see it as the city of lost souls. The visual distortion in the piece reflects that feeling of disorientation, or even dissociation. It’s not meant to be sad, just honest.
