I make Modern Fairytales - collages where the surreal and the mundane collide, where characters are equal parts dreamy, awkward and entirely themselves. Each piece is a tiny story, simple and naive, yet somehow holding a truth that stings, soothes and sometimes makes you chuckle at life’s absurdity.
My roots are in Fine Art photography, but eventually I wanted stories that could stretch, twist, and linger. That curiosity led to Modern Fairytales.
Creating these fairytales is also how I navigate my own chaos. They are my little compass in a world that refuses to stay still, a place where beauty and pain stubbornly coexist, and irony is never far away.
At the same time, I am becoming a play therapist, exploring how stories, imagination and play can help people - especially children - understand themselves and the world around them. In a way, my fairytales and this path are two sides of the same coin: both are about creating spaces where emotions are seen, curiosity is honoured, and the messy, beautiful complexity of life is acknowledged.
This space is an ode to existence - to its contradictions, surprises and quiet poetry - told through images that linger somewhere between what is seen and what is felt.
