My artworks are about archetypal reflections of the many faces of humanity and the psyche. It is the application of diffuse and specural reflection of light through which I express myself as an artist. I work solely on my own. I use real people as my models and my images are created optically (in camera) in a studio space that I design and illuminate myself.
