Artist statement

In the PAPER CUTZ series, I explore the boundary between the tangible and the imagined, transforming the simplest of materials — a sheet of paper — into a vessel for complex human emotions. The title refers not only to the physical medium itself, but also to the subtle yet painful paper cuts that life leaves on our psyche.

Each figure in this series emerges from a crumpled sheet of paper. Through careful observation of its folds and a precise use of chiaroscuro, I reveal hidden faces and forms concealed within the apparent chaos of its textures. These figures are three-dimensional manifestations of my own life experiences, memories, and reflections.

Although they appear fragile, trapped within the paper's structure, each one tells a different and deeply personal story. They are intimate interpretations of my experiences, emotions, and ongoing attempts to understand and confront reality.
