ABOUT
ARTIST STATEMENT
My artistic practice spans sculpture, installation, performance, drawing, and painting. A relentless drive to create fuels my process: an urge to lose myself completely in the making, pushing every force until the work reaches beyond its potential.
I draw inspiration from pop culture, mass media aesthetics and visual language as a tool to express personal, suppressed, or subversive emotions. At the same time, I explore how something deeply personal can be framed as something familiar and collective, distorting assumptions and expectations.
Collecting objet trouvé and found footage is a central start point to my practice. I incorporate these materials in recognizable ways, playing with their existing meanings while twisting them into something unsettling. Disorder becomes seductive. I tease with familiarity, disrupting assumptions, inviting disillusionment.
In Bags (2024), a body-sized bag, blonde hair spilling out, just enough to make you wonder: a discarded woman? A trophy? Or just a trick of the eye? On top, a smaller bag, a tail slipping free; fox fur, or something far more intimate? You think you know, but I won’t let you be sure.
In Untitled (2025), a ceramic leg, smooth and vulnerable, floats in the hollowed-out negative of itself. A landscape painting, forced to hold it in place with rough bolts and metal arms. A moment of dislocation, where the absurd and the hopeless are amplified.
I shape tension between what is known and what is unknown. Through irony, I twist social assumptions into something unstable, forcing meaning to shift beneath your gaze. The absurd and the hopeless expanded, beauty bound and suspended: an invitation to look closer, to question, or simply to fill in the gaps.
