I work with collage and assemblage, using found, altered, and handmade materials. Torn edges and painterly textures interact with sharp lines. My visual language merges figuration and abstraction into a single surface with recurring motifs — tea mugs, body parts, letters, and words.
Inspired by differences in worldviews, experience, and mental processes, I search for common ground — a key to communication. Inspired by fleeting moments, I work to resolve the painful finitude of everything I hold dear. Working with materials and ideas has become a ritual-like search for new lifecycles.
Opposing forms of control — observation, destruction, and creation — come together in collage as a process of renewal. In art and social actions and processes, they are neutral; I measure their impact by what and who they help and harm.
I work in the spaces between chores and responsibilities — slowly but with a declaration: my physical and intellectual paths as a person, a woman, and an artist are one. Care is my choice — an alternative to the fast-paced race and the sacrifice. This is how I fight for what matters.
