About    
CV

Researcher on fragile nature of materials and societal pre conceptions, bringing importance to sensorial perception of the world around us with the aim to create a more approachable reality. 
A tendency to explore variety of media gives me opportunity to expand photographic practice further, to experiment in the realm of soundscape, installation and (public) space interventions. 
Deconstructing normativity and decontextualising it, challenges its nature while allowing me to grasp the world that surrounds me. 

Heavily research-based practice allows the democratic and educational nature of art to become a key, a multilayered entrance into a subjective experience. Striving for a sense of softness, the works provide a critical perspective on our society and its structural complexity. Working between contrasts of active and passive, between reflecting and creating, the process of making plays an integral role in my final work as it is bringing forward my own positioning. Restlessly, my dedication to experimenting, experiencing, learning, and relearning, guides the exploration of space and time in an intuitive and respectful manner. I believe that art is a shared tool that can shape-shift and find its purpose in all social spheres. 

I see myself as a provider of tools and space that bends what is present. Care, dialogue, and reflection are desired outcomes. A sense of transgression, and freedom to reclaim your being and further position yourself creates work in a constant process of change. As metal rusts, the process is affecting the beginning with no way back.
