What advice would you give to aspiring artists who want to establish themselves in the industry?

Being an artist means wearing many hats. You’re not just creating—you’re also an accountant, a salesperson, a marketing professional, an influencer, a web designer, and sometimes even a video producer. The reality is that making art and building a career as an artist are two different things, and you have to navigate both.

It’s also about recognizing opportunities. Keep your eyes and ears open because connections happen everywhere. People love to support artists, but you have to put yourself out there. Be open, engage with others, and don’t be afraid to ask for help—your best allies are often the people around you.

What message do you hope people take away from your art?

I want people to see that art is everywhere, it’s in the details we often overlook, in the layers of everyday life. My work reflects how I see the world, and I hope it encourages others to look a little closer, to find meaning in unexpected places.
