Karpett

My work is driven by the urgency to resist erasure and reclaim space. As a queer soft punk artist, I use bold colors and a deliberately “naive” aesthetic to confront themes of resilience, vulnerability, and transformation. What may seem playful on the surface often carries the weight of anger, survival, and the need to be seen. I see art as both a mirror and a rupture: a mirror of my inner world—shaped by struggles with identity, mental health, and belonging—and a rupture against silence, conformity, and invisibility. Each piece is an attempt to transform chaos into presence, turning fragility into empowerment. Beyond decoration, my practice seeks connection and disruption. I want my work to provoke, to spark dialogue, to open a space where others can feel reflected and emboldened. For me, art is not static—it is alive, regenerative, and unapologetically political: a tool to challenge systems, reclaim narratives, and imagine new realities.
