Exhibitions & Installations.

  • Expressionism Is PowerExpressionism Is Power centers identity, autonomy, and the politics of self‑presentation. Through bold colors, text‑driven compositions, and stylized portraiture, the exhibition frames self‑expression as resistance. (June 11th, 2026)

  • Breaking Into My Skin Breaking Into My Skin is a powerful invitation into identity through raw and evocative portraiture. This exhibition follows the journey of a young man striking to leave a lasting imprint. It’s more than just an exhibition—it's an introspective testimony urging you to delve, interpret, and connect. Each image captures vulnerability, resilience, and even evolution of becoming, inviting viewers to reflect on their sense of identity. (May 15th ,2025)
