What is the most important detail in your practice?

Authenticity is the foundation of my creative practice — both in how I present myself and in the visual worlds I help shape. I’m drawn to aesthetics that feel lived-in, intimate, and honest, embracing texture, imperfection, and the validity of every day. As an artist and mover, authenticity also means staying rooted in who I am, allowing my identity to inform the way I move through creative spaces. I believe that when visual storytelling is grounded in real experience, it creates space for deeper connection, representation, and resonance. Whether I'm modelling, styling, or designing, I aim to bring a sense of truth to everything I create.
