Exploring the Forces That Guide Our Choices

At its core, The Only Reason Why I Came, Is Because You Were Here examines the invisible forces that guide our choices, compelling us to step into spaces we might otherwise avoid. The composition evokes a sense of emotional layering—some figures exist in harmony, while others remain at odds, their presence tolerated rather than welcomed. The environment is secondary, almost irrelevant; what matters is who is there, who is missing, and the weight of these dynamics.

Subtle contrasts between light and shadow hint at unspoken histories and unresolved emotions. The piece invites viewers to reflect on their own moments of reluctant reunion, where past and present converge in a silent negotiation of presence.

Life's Difficulties, Hardships, And Turbulent Phases

In Little Storms That We All Go Thru, two figures stand waist-deep in the ocean, surrounded by strong, crashing waves. The scene captures a powerful metaphor of resilience and shared experiences, where the turbulent waters represent the challenges and struggles we all face in life. The title, "Little Storms," reflects the everyday trials and emotional hardships that may not seem significant to others but can feel overwhelming when experienced personally.

The ocean's forceful waves illustrate how these "little storms" can come unexpectedly, pushing us off balance and testing our resolve. Yet, the presence of the two people standing side by side suggests a sense of solidarity, hinting at the strength that comes from connection, empathy, and mutual support. Their stance—facing the waves together—evokes a feeling of perseverance, as if they are weathering the storm, bracing themselves against its power.
