These pencil drawings explore and capture the subconscious and metaphors. The portraits of my children, the beauty of nature, and the places I've encountered reflect my journey and way of life, expressing a self-portrait as a narrative. To visualize this inner journey, I continue to explore various aspects of identity by blending realism with abstract elements.

これらの鉛筆画は、潜在意識とメタファーを探求し捉えたものである。私の子供たちのポートレイトや、自然の美しさ、遭遇したとある場所、それらのイメージは私の旅や生き方を反映し、物語としてのセルフポートレイトを表現している。
内なる旅を視覚化するために、写実と抽象的な要素を融合させながら、アイデンティティのさまざまな側面を探求し続けている。
