The social pressure and weight of responsibility we experience can sometimes take away the confidence and certainty we once felt in what we do, leaving us doubting whether our efforts are good enough.
I aspire to make art that reminds us in such times that our efforts do matter, that the work we’re doing is beautiful, that it deserves to be recognized and appreciated.
