gm — home 🧡. I finally gave my family a place where they can feel comfortable, safe and wake up to the view they deserve. We used to live in a really tiny place, far from opportunities. I’m so grateful to the people who resonates with my work. You changed everything for us!

Casco Viejo (2016) . Survival mechanisms help us find purpose and strength. More importantly change our ways of thinking and reset. My work was born from isolation, before we were forced to be away from one another. I was away with myself. These sorted pixels — my safe space.

TOR — their team, vision and incredible commitment to what they do. The ones who contacted me with the idea have been working for over a decade. They have my respect forever. I want to keep supporting projects like this. The purest form of decentralization and internet history 💕.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for participating in this charity auction in support of Tor's work, to @PleasrDAO for the closing bid of 500 $ETH / $2M in support of privacy online, and to @ix_shells for her incredible piece of art based on the very first onion service key.

I love women so much; their gaze and strength. They are always first for me. I've gathered a small collection throughout the year that represents my devotion. Some are women-identifying artists, others represent the beauty of their forms.
