At one point I wished for one thing to return to me, the joy of creating. I cried when I realized how long ago it had left me.

Desires
Your desire is the vessel to your true self. The soul’s means to speak to you directly. You are meant to chase them, obsessively, to the far corners of your being. It is in this endeavour were you find what you are destined to become.

The brutal truth of the self
Most days I would wake up with my mind lost in a dark place. Shreds of thoughts, often negative, would plough through my head. Constructing a day that would stumble, leading me further and further away from feeling alive and experiencing joy.

For me personally, the Serpent has become a vessel for truth. We are slowly entering a world where we no longer know if we can trust what we see. The snake forces us to look inward. To evade the chaos and noise and turn to ourselves, to our subconscious. #transformation

Gauge, blue pencil drawing paper. This is quite an early work. I have come to revisit it. My work is currently taking quite a different path. Both somehwo elements from the past seem to re-arrange itself and form a new reality.

With ‘The Serpent,’ I wanted to capture transformation, duality, and the eternal cycles of creation and renewal.
The two serpents, intertwined through the sacred geometry of the Merkaba, symbolize the unity of opposites—light and shadow, chaos and harmony.
