The path to reach the point where I feel obliged to write this text was neither straight nor well-worn. It took me several years to realize that what I considered lost was quietly dormant. I subconsciously nourished it, so it grew and started seeking attention. The mentioned “it” is nothing other than my desire to speak through art. After spending five years studying philology and another three writing my doctoral dissertation, it turned out that my body was anxious, and my head was loaded with theories for which I lacked means of expression.

Through my research and art, I aim to shed light on contemporary issues using critical cultural theories. I believe that giving voice to more-than-human realms is not only possible but also necessary. Through community-based activities, I endeavor to investigate local legacies and Genius loci.  

My installations employ simple and raw materials such as wood, paper, thread, and natural objects. I use traditional and experimental printing techniques to construct narratives with a limited color palette, pursuing simplicity of forms and symbolical meaning. My workshops examine the environment with several physiological senses and establish international and/or interspecies communication. The intrinsic value of ephemeral effects is essential in my art, as it reveals itself through a process.
