My images explore our human condition and relationship to the world. In yogic philosophy
the world is multidimensional, we exist beyond physical space. Our fragile human essence is
at play with layers of existence, yet we remain permanent.
Maya (“illusion”) suggests the world we see doesn’t even exist. Maybe it’s all a dream. The
past doesn’t exist at this moment, which won’t exist in the future. The world is nothing but a
mirage.
