ECHOS
ECHOS is an art adventure that started in 2023. It questions the NOW, the SELF and HOW we can imprint what is usually ephemeral and unseen. Since i have started practicing dance, questions like
" Do my hands dance on my canvas when they hold a paint brush?, is my body creating visual patterns when i am moving from one side to another while dancing on a stage ?"
ECHOS aims at creating more patterns with new people who have other life stories to relate through their imprints. It is an ongoing art adventure and research.

"Each step we take as an artist has the possibility of bringing changes to the society. Since my early childhood, i have been fond of the Arts. Creating beauty from scratch is an activity that surpasses all other experiences.
As a student, i enjoyed my art and literature classes more than any other subjects. I participated in numerous competitions, proudly representing my school for several events. I started Kuchipudi dance in parallel with my Fine Arts studies and both are inextricably linked.
I love the feel of the brush between my finger tips as well as the rhythmic sound of my goonghroos singing to the tune of my feet.
