 About the artwork:

Tom is the system. Jerry is done playing by the rules.

In Escape the System, a classic cartoon chase turns into a metaphor for modern rebellion. Jerry is escaping the rat race, chasing freedom, becoming the entrepreneur. Above him, the words “Escape the system, make your own” and “Startup” that float in the chaos like a spark of new beginnings. The ladder with the question mark? It’s the unknown—risk, reward, the climb you take when you stop following and start building.

Tom, desperate, stuck, part of the machine—tries to pull him back. But Jerry's already gone. This piece is fun, and full of motion. A bold reminder that the real winners aren’t the ones who run faster inside the wheel—they’re the ones who jump out of it.

This is a painting for the rebels, the founders, the ones building their own way out.

My work lives at the intersection of bold pop culture and personal reflection. Through layered textures, iconic characters, and unexpected juxtapositions, I explore the contradictions of modern life — glamour and grit, success and satire, chaos and clarity. Much of my work reimagines familiar faces — from cartoon legends to luxury icons — not to glorify them, but to question them, twist them, and ultimately make them my own. Characters like Mr. Monopoly, Bugs Bunny, or Homer Simpson become vessels to talk about ambition, abundance, and the absurdity of our times. It’s all pop — but it’s also deeply personal.

At the heart of it, I believe in art as transformation. I believe in creativity not just as a medium, but as a way of life — to shift perspective, to provoke thought, and to connect.
