Artist‘s Statement
As a writer, I’m driven by a profound love for the intricate beauty of science, the boundless realms of fantasy, and the exhilarating sensation of pushing the boundaries of imagination. Through my words, I aspire to weave stories that bridge the gap between the known and the unknown, infusing elements of both worlds into narratives that challenge perceptions and ignite curiosity.
