The story behind my art

Far from my roots, I wandered.
Now the canvas calls and everything begins to shift toward a new reality.

I explore the dynamics of power and the ways large structures shape human experience. My work moves between political allegory, societal reflection and inner transformation, revealing the tensions that arise where personal truth meets collective systems.

By combining bold iconography with psychological resonance, I try to create paintings that challenge perception and invite viewers to re-examine the world around them.

"Photography is the art of freezing that fleeting breath — the moment when you can almost touch the air and feel the world pulse around you."

As I traveled through Cambodia with my fiancé, we spent a couple of days in Siem Reap.


One night, we wandered along Pub Street, looking for a bit of fun but also hoping to find a quieter spot. Eventually, we turned into a small side street where the bars slowly disappeared, one by one. That’s when we saw a dog crossing the road.

You could tell he was hungry, exhausted, and worn down by daily life. I immediately started looking for a shop to buy some food for him, but there was none in sight. I walked back to the last restaurant before the streetlights ended and asked if they had any leftover meat from cooking. They said no and unfortunately, I hadn’t chosen the cheapest restaurant.

Paying $28 for an entrecôte in Cambodia is far from cheap—especially for an unprocessed piece of meat with no sides. On the way back to find the dog, he had turned into the Wat Preah Prom Rath temple, where I wasn’t allowed to enter. So, I left the meat at the gate.While doing so, I noticed a small bar called 'BARCODE' nearby—and that’s where Barry’s and my story began.
