Bio
With a foundation in fine art, my work emerges at the intersection of wild instinct and visual poetry. Traveling solo across Africa as a female photographer, I don’t chase perfection—I seek presence. Each frame is a study in impermanence, in beauty that vanishes, in lives suspended between survival and silence. I see animals not just as subjects, but as the original art forms of the wild—sculpted by evolution, drawn in shadow and sun. Their movements echo brushstrokes; their forms dissolve into texture, into tone. Light and dust become collaborators. Patience becomes a medium. My imagery is shaped by an art practice rooted in restraint—negative space, earth-toned palettes, and the quiet tension between form and void. These are not just photographs; they are echoes. This is a love letter in chiaroscuro. A requiem in pigment. A devotion to the untamed. Through my lens, I stand with the voiceless—against the spectacle of trophies, against confinement, against the quiet erasure of species we are losing in real time. Art can remember what the world forgets.
