Artist Statement

My research revolves around the themes of materiality, destruction and transformation. Focusing on non-traditional methods of art-making such as burning, melting or dissolving, I explore materials’ "potentiality" and their physical properties. I work mainly with textile, clay and watercolour&pigments. Blurring the boundaries between 2D and 3D, I make artworks that are half-painting, half-sculpture, sometimes closer to art installations. Most of my biomorphic objects aim to represent the fragility of life. Whether it’s holes burnt in fabric or white areas of unpainted surface, I invite the viewer to experience both the image and its own disintegration, life and decay, remembering and forgetting. Transformation of matter is part of our existence, it’s life itself. — We adapt, thrive and decay in a constant flow of change.
