Fascinated by the surreal and bizarre, he aims to create pieces that explore the connection between physical and emotional spaces. He combines organic shapes with elements of realism, often focusing on the human form, blurring the boundaries between ordinary and imaginary.
His artwork is created with graphite and coloured pencil on paper, and occasionally embellished with ink.
