I then turned my focus to the complexities of urban living—delving into multi-level living spaces amid pressing contemporary issues such as climate change, the rise of populism, and a growing sense that we are sleepwalking into a much worse future. Today, our homes are more connected than ever, yet they have increasingly lost their role as shared sanctuaries. With everything from entertainment to essentials delivered to our doorsteps, we often overlook the climate crisis fueled by our relentless pursuit of convenience, out-of-season foods, and fossil fuels.

Despite living in close proximity, we find ourselves more isolated than ever—sleeping mere inches away from neighbors we barely know. My work seeks to expose this disconnection, revealing the hidden layers of life within apartment blocks and urban infrastructures as if tearing down a ‘fourth wall.’ Through layered compositions, balanced tones, and shimmering brushwork, I invite viewers to reflect on our collective situation, offering both a critique and a glimmer of hope.
