I work from pre-existing photographs — found, personal, collected— isolating fragments that can be stretched beyond their original meaning. Through painting, the image is slowed down, magnified, and estranged, becoming something unstable, sensuous, and psychologically charged.
My paintings inhabit the border between attraction and revulsion. They appear to promise a nameable image, yet escape a direct reading, unsettling the viewer’s desire to categorise or resolve what they see. I am drawn to moments where beauty curdles, where flesh, appetite, decay, and desire collide.
I want the work to feel seductive but unreliable — to pull the viewer closer while quietly provoking discomfort, hesitation, and an awareness of the body’s instinctive responses. The paintings seek to expose the fragile boundary between pleasure and disturbance.

…or something like this:
