Through my work, I study and celebrate the interconnectedness of all things, blurring the lines between human and non-human, self and other. This journey is deeply personal and universal, reflecting the cycles of life, death and rebirth that shape our existence.
Nature serves as both my muse and medium, offering endless inspiration and guidance. Along with traditional materials like paint, plaster, clay, and paper mâché, I incorporate natural elements—bones, feathers, stones, shells, flowers, and sticks inviting their spirit to weave, guide, and move alongside my own. Using my own face and body to make molds and armatures, the work takes shape as hybridized creatures in the form of masks that can be worn and embodied, as well as human-sized sculptures. These forms appear to be either decomposing into organic material or being born from the compost. In giving form to the work, I imbue it with agency, recognizing that art is not static but an ongoing dance between creator and creation.
Exploring these questions through the visual language of art has enabled within myself a more intimate investigation of what it means to have a body in relationship with nature and the cosmos.
My paintings are born from cosmic visions that have a sparkly and magical quality to them. I use materials like crystals, glitter, gold and liquid glass resin. I admire the way the light catches them, bringing the paintings to life.
