Artist Statement
Body is where my practice begins — with presence, intimacy, and vulnerability. These images trace how fatness and everyday life intersect, turning small gestures into portraits of strength and tenderness. Through staged self-portraits, I confront how bodies are judged, contained, and made precarious, transforming visibility into recognition rather than shame. At the same time, the work remains celebratory: a body in balance, in tension, in joy. Body asks what it means to inhabit flesh that carries history, memory, and power — and to be seen in full view.
