"People in sleep is a recurring theme for me. The motif fascinates me because it captures something we all experience daily, yet we never see ourselves doing. The act of someone observing us in this state reflects a deep level of trust, as they are welcomed into our most intimate space - our bedroom, our vulnerability… Through this theme, I aim to immerse the viewer in a sense of interpersonal intimacy, a connection we all deeply yearn for."
