I would like to believe my work displays my escape from the inner demons I fight on a daily basis. As young as I am, I have already experienced too much loss, too much defeat and too much recession. I fight these inner demons secretly so my younger siblings don't see the weakness of me but the hidden fighter instead. I've always been the type of kid who walked toward the things that went bump in the night, just to get a better look. They say time heals all wounds but years later I'm still a strange little girl who time is passing by. My work is a display of my random adventures and misfortunes I've encountered along the way.
