<p class="p1">Artist's Statement:</p>
<p class="p1"><em>"The theme of self-introspection is crucial to my art, since I believe that only by delving into the enigmas of the self can an individual truly engage with the world and bring about change in a profound, meaningful way.&nbsp;</em></p>
<p class="p1"><em>Though I consider myself primarily a Symbolist, my art draws on a wide variety of mythologies, worldviews, religions, and literary traditions, both ancient and modern, ranging from Buddhism to Russian folklore."</em></p>
