Artist Statement:

As an artist, my creative practice is fundamentally a study of light. Working with illuminated stained glass mosaics allows me to capture and manipulate brilliance, turning glass into a canvas of living color. For this exhibition, my work focuses on the concept of radiance and the way warmth influences texture and depth. By combining intricate glasswork with deliberate illumination, I aim to evoke the feeling of a sun-drenched landscape or the quiet beauty of a blooming form. I want viewers to experience a visceral connection to the energy of light, feeling the literal and symbolic warmth radiating from within the piece.
