Shaped by Two Worlds

I grew up in Malaysia, where the rainforest and the concrete jungle exist side by side. Being surrounded by both shaped the way I see the world — a constant contrast between nature and the environments we build around it.

I’ve always been drawn to nature. The way it adapts, survives, and continues to exist within spaces that weren’t made for it.

That idea has stayed with me. It’s something I think about not just in the world around me, but in the spaces we create for ourselves — and how those two worlds might one day coexist without one overpowering the other.

My work is rooted in that balance. It explores the quiet strength in nature, the resistance, and the moments where contrast creates something deeper — something that feels both calm and unsettled at the same time.

Some pieces come out softer, others hold more weight, but they all come from that same place. My aim is to carry that feeling into the work, so it can exist beyond the page and into the space it’s placed in.
