Featured Story: Italy Experience – 2025
I’m thrilled to have exhibited at Spazio SV in Venice last summer – a three-month showcase in one of the world’s most inspiring cities for art. The exhibition ran through mid-August to mid-October 2025. Alongside the beautiful Venice, I also exhibited my sculptures in the historic Florence at the iconic Florence Biennale in October. Sharing the space with 550 artists from across the world was one of the most inspiring opportunities I’ve had. It was a pure joy to share my work with an international audience in such a historic settings.
