I consider my style to be quite meditative. The pace is often slower, enabling a deeper engagement and contemplation of each presented frame. It's crucial for me to discover a part of myself in every project I undertake because that connection profoundly influences my decision-making process. This level of vulnerability ultimately drives and empowers me, guiding every aspect of the project with intention and care.
