“My practice is rooted in personal memory, womanhood, and the quiet tensions between tradition and contemporary life. Through painting and installation, I deconstruct familiar cultural symbols and reshape them into reflections on identity, gender, and perception. Blending satire with introspection, my work invites viewers to question inherited narratives while reconnecting with the layered realities of being and belonging.
Many of my works remain untitled, allowing viewers the space to spend time with the paintings and engage with them through their own life experiences, forming personal observations, emotions, and interpretations without limitation.”
