My portraits begin with a single line - a curve of a cheek, the shadow of a gaze - and grow into studies of connection. Often drawn as half-faces or bodies, they reflect how we encounter one another in fragments: in fleeting glances, in gestures, in silences. These are not likenesses of specific people, but emotional impressions, moments when something between us lingers.

Each face is a meeting point. Sometimes they align by chance, other times they feel destined to be side by side. Together they form constellations of belonging, a visual record of how we carry parts of each other, even in places where language fails us.

These works are built on intuition, drawn from encounters in cities I’ve passed through, communities I’ve called home, and the invisible threads that connect us. In their simplicity, they hold complexity, of identity, of longing, of shared recognition across borders both real and imagined.
