Statement
My work explores the body as both subject and instrument — a sensory and symbolic tool for navigating identity, intimacy, and power. Through painting, process-based installations, and live or interactive elements, I create spaces where the personal becomes political, and where vulnerability can serve as resistance.
I’m interested in what happens when the viewer is not just a passive observer, but a participant — when a work becomes an invitation to reflect, shift, or respond. Storytelling, psychological themes, and visual metaphors are central to my practice, opening spaces for connection and confrontation alike. Conceptual at its core, my work remains rooted in the tactile: I paint, I build, I perform. I work with what I have — materials, emotions, bodies — and let the process shape the outcome.
Audience-engaging practices are a natural extension of my approach. I’m particularly inspired by the ways artists use physical presence and interaction to disarm, provoke, or connect — making the moment of encounter part of the artwork itself.
Historically, I draw energy from the Renaissance — not only for its visual richness but for its bold curiosity and multidisciplinary ambition. I’m especially drawn to how artists of the time used grand visual language to express personal and political truths. That tension — between beauty and critique, softness and confrontation — is something I continually return to.
At its core, my work is about connection. I want to understand the world through creation — to process ideas, emotions, and conflicts by shaping them into something visual, tangible, and shared. Art, to me, is a space where transformation becomes possible — where something internal finds new form and invites others to do the same.
