"my world is raw and organic, deeply rooted in the intrinsic qualities of materials and the emotions they awaken. i work intuitively and physically,ย often with materials that carry weight, texture, or memory,ย allowing their resistance, fragility, and structure to guide the process.ย
my practice explores themes of confrontation, vulnerability, and the complex tension between beauty and brutality. iโm drawn to contrasts: between stability and erosion, softness and sharpness, silence and pressure. through these oppositions, i investigate how matter can hold emotion, and how form becomes a language for whatโs otherwise unspeakable. each piece is an immersive study in sensation โ an intimate space where personal and existential narratives are embedded directly into the surface. the work invites not just to be seen, but to be felt: a tactile pull, a presence, a residue.ย
i want the materials to speak for themselves:ย to whisper, to resist, to haunt. my installations and objects often feel ritualistic, like offerings or remnants. they inhabit a space between sculpture, memory, and wound. in many ways, i see making as a way of remembering โ not just personally, but materially."
