COLLECTION
Introspection
I’m proud to share with you the fruits of a painful but profound, never-ending journey of self discovery. This collection chronicles a point in my life when deep inner struggles and conflicts ran deep. It was a time when I couldn’t see any light in the future, and I felt trapped in a bottomless dark hole. As part of my reconciliation process, I documented the intense journey of overcoming my struggles and uninstalling some unhelpful self beliefs through art. It felt impossible and gruelling at the time, but I summoned my remaining strength to filter out all the noises in my head and bared my soul on the canvases. What you see now is the result of my pain and an attempt to improve my understanding of myself and the world. I created 12 pieces during that tumultuous period. And from that, I selected three of the most representational work to curate this collection. The central theme of ‘Introspection’ is to remind ourselves that there is always hope and beauty around us, no matter how grim things may seem right now. Like all things in life, suffering is but momentary. May this series remind you of the immense strength, courage and resilience you possess. I invite you to join me on this journey of self discovery. I'm curious to see what meaning you’ll find in these paintings.
