Geometry fascinates me. Through lino printing, I have found a way to combine my interest in art, my talent for precision and my love of the craft. My journey began when an artist colleague moved into our former shared studio and brought in an old printing press. This device seemed so powerful yet so simple. Its very existence sparked in me the desire to explore it further and to use it to create murals with an energetic aspect for my own home.
After posting my first works on social media, including one of my very first creations, the Central Sun, more and more people shared their excitement about the prints and asked if they were up for sale. As a result, I decided to open an Etsy store as a way to share my art with the world.
I send my handmade works – which are mostly limited editions – all around the world, to a wide variety of people as well as institutions such as yoga centres and healing practices.
