ARTWORKS
In my works, I work on the theme of sincerity, research and manifestation.
I use paper, cardboard, paints, pencils, fabric, felt-tip pens, threads and graphics to create character in my works. Collage is my way of being myself, being sincere and showing how I see the world and how I feel about it.
Each person's worldview is unique, thoughts and dreams, each of us is a separate universe, where there is beautiful and interesting. And I like to explore it, use it, creating multifaceted universes through analog and digital collage.
