HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR ARTISTIC STYLE? 

Colorful, reflective of things going on around me and how I can interpret them. Things that I want to bring to light, like conflicts in society and concepts like that.

​

HOW HAS OUR SEMESTER THEME IMPACTED YOUR ARTISTIC PRACTICE? 

I feel that Public Art is very powerful and has a strong voice. It's separate from traditional art and I feel that is very important. Especially with everything going on this year, it's very crazy, and I feel public art is a way of protesting.

​

WHAT THEMES OR SYMBOLS REAPPEAR IN YOUR BODY OF WORK? 

Home. I feel my art revolves around the idea of going back to my home country, and the economical and social problems that are going on there motivates my art.

​

WHAT DOES TEEN LAB MEAN TO YOU? 

It has always been a place for me to come and express myself with people that I'm comfortable with, doing things that I'm comfortable with. I feel like I am meditating as I am here, it's peaceful for me.

​

WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS AFTER TEEN LAB? 

It's really too early to tell, but I've had this one career in mind-- photo journalism, especially warfare photojournalism. I feel like I am an advocate and a person interested in social problems so going into that area seems perfect for me. But I am still not very sure what I want to do yet.
