The Space in Between is a turning point — both for my art and for myself. This collection marks a rebrand, a new chapter but also a return to my authenticity: to color, to motion, to the raw, instinctive way I’ve always wanted to paint with organic shapes and blends of color. Each piece is built on immediacy — fast, fluid strokes, rich pigments layered with acrylics and oil sticks, and the unpredictable texture of raw canvas. Working on raw canvas requires a release of control, a submission to the blends and the bleeds and the serendipity of creation.

At its core, this body of work explores the transition point I’m at in my life. Most of these pieces were painted while I was losing my stepdad, who passed away on September 18, 2025. It’s about the quiet tension that lives between two states — between grief and what comes next, between endings and beginnings, between what’s lost and what’s possible, between who you are and who you want to be. In these pieces, everything feels suspended: colors meet and hesitate, strokes collide and dissolve, and something new starts to take shape.

Through this collection, I wanted to let go of perfection and control (which is not usually my strong suit, for those who know me). I wanted to create from the place where emotion and instinct moves faster than thought. The Space in Between is a reflection of change, of becoming, of trust, and of finding beauty in the moments that exist between one place and another.
