The Smiley X Project

The X doesn't erase the smile. It transforms it. The Smiley X Project explores what remains after everything changes. Through layers of mixed media, gesture and repetition, the smiley becomes a symbol of resilience, transformation and renewal. Every layer tells a part of the story.

Soft Rebellion

The freedom to become. The freedom to evolve. To stay open, curious and willing to break the rules I created for myself. To stay alive. Trust myself. Keep becoming.

No Perfect Days

Is the ordinary enough? Through light, place and quiet observation, these photographs explore the moments we so often pass by. They suggest that sometimes the smallest shift isn't in the world around us—it's in the way we choose to see it. Nothing changed. I just started looking.
