I’ll be honest: it’s easy to let comparison or doubt creep in during hours of slow moments... This festival was a mental and physical challenge, and it didn't look exactly like I planned it to. However, those genuine connections... remind me why I do this. Feeling 'seen' by even a handful of people—those who truly get the heart behind my art—makes the hard work worth it.

This series isn't just about the objects themselves; it’s about the curation. It’s an exploration of how disparate textures—the coolness of a high-gloss resin finish, the matte depth of gouache, and the organic grain of wood—can come together to form a cohesive, visual rhythm.
