My work is deeply personal. I express my feelings, emotions and inspirations in both my artwork as well as in design. In my studio practice, I mainly work in Printmaking, and through various process, I translate my deepest thoughts through ink and different materials.

I am applying to this competition to expand abilities and artistic views and I am applying an etching piece due to the lack of local Printmaking artists. The work I am entering represents a smothered and ill China Doll, squeezed in an old jar with fungi all around its face. This work is symbolic as it expresses a state of being, where regardless of the situation a person is in (whether dead, sick, alive or depressed), people around will still talk and express feelings of jealousy, challenge, and revenge.
