Syd Martinez-Khan
I’m a painter based in Montreal, Canada. I create art as a form of journaling, portraying how I process my emotions and personal experiences. My work incorporates surrealist and abstract elements to gain a deeper understanding of the self without the limitations of reality. Currently in an exploratory period with my style, I am dedicated to engage with forms of art that feel authentic to me.
