About Kia

In my work, I explore relationship between human and environment, delving into the invisible forces that shape the natural world. Themes of emergence, death, archetypes, myth, and symbolism serve as vehicles for examining what it means to live in a physical body. My practice seeks to tell the story of our interdependence with nature, drawing on motifs inspired by biology and infused with the language of color. Through this, I aim to create visual metaphors that reflect the complexity and fragility of life.
As a third-generation artist, I’ve always been driven to express myself through art. My Mother's love of earth, composting, and growing plants is a constant influence. These lessons, paired with my studies in anatomy and physiology, deepened my understanding of the interconnectedness of all living things.
My work serves as a doorway into the unseen realms that govern our existence, honoring the forgotten forces that sustain us.
