Silky is a vibrant portrait series created between 2017–2018 and published in 2018, inspired by the visual language, fashion, and cultural energy of early-2000s hip-hop. Through bold color, playful exaggeration, and shifting personas, the collection examines how individuality influences perception over time.

Each work presents a different iteration of the same figure, exploring how style, context, and self-expression shape how a person is seen—while emphasizing that, beneath these changes, identity remains consistent. Silky celebrates transformation not as reinvention, but as continuity, honoring growth while staying true to the self at its core.
