I created The Connection as the starting point of the journey—a single piece that holds all twelve within it. Every figure, animal, and texture echoes something from the others, reminding us that no part of ourselves exists in isolation. It’s about the way our identity, memories, and inner truths weave together—sometimes clearly, sometimes in silence—but always connected.

This piece was built through layers—intuitively guided by emotion and memory. I combined abstract washes with detailed elements using acrylic, ink, and collage-like blending. The textures shift and merge, just like the thoughts and feelings that move through us. Nothing is fixed—only felt.
