Biography

I am a painter drawn to the quiet pulse of memory, to the way colors can hold emotion long after words fade. Every painting I create begins with a scarlet canvas, a ritual that breathes life and warmth into what follows. That red is my heartbeat, the thread that ties all my stories together.

My art lives somewhere between precision and emotion. I love the rhythm of structure, lines, layers, patterns, but I let color take over, allowing instinct to guide me where reason stops. My subjects often come from the places I’ve seen and the stories I’ve lived: a crowded market in Seychelles, the pages of a book that lingers in my thoughts, a fleeting glance, a still moment that quietly asks to be remembered.

Through each piece, I try to capture both presence and nostalgia, the beauty of what is, and the ache of what’s already gone. I want my paintings to feel alive, like conversations between the viewer and a memory they didn’t know they had.

My style merges precision with spontaneity: defined lines give way to expressive color, and emotion seeps through every brushstroke. Each painting is both a narrative and a memory, a space where color becomes language, and silence speaks.
