Self-Portrait. Through sharing my artwork – and especially with self-portraits - I want people to get to know me a bit, to see what I’m interested in, what is important to me: Country, family, history, power, recognition.
Looking in the mirror and painting what I see has been an important part of understanding my own identity and my family history - it’s what I do with my painting, I use my identity to share with others.
Picking up the paintbrush has changed my life. I now feel a responsibility to keep going and to stay true to myself words - Art is powerful. Art is my weapon. Art can change the world.
