I am a visual artist working with bodily and material-based practices at the intersection of psychological vulnerability, technology, and lived experience.
My work develops alternative languages for perception and relation through metal, objects, and performative situations.

Artist statement

I work with bodily and material-based works that explore the relationship between psychological vulnerability, technology, and the surrounding world. Drawing on my own experiences with psychiatry, I use art as a way of developing alternative languages for knowledge, perception, and relation where established systems break down.


My practice is characterized by the use of rough, homemade systems and materials that resist efficiency, stability, and singular function. I work with silver, metal, ceramics, print, charcoal, and everyday objects to investigate how materials shape and are shaped by the body, particularly the body that experiences the world at a different frequency from the normative. The works often emerge through slow, experimental processes in which error, resistance, and repetition are central driving forces.


I approach technology in an expanded sense, where programming, ritual, object, and bodily action are interwoven. My practice moves between performative situations, homemade languages, and physical, body-borne metal objects that are activated through use, touch, and relation. Here, I understand the artwork not as an isolated object, but as something that only takes form in the encounter between material, body, and a concrete other.


What unites the works is an interest in the apophenic, the act of finding connections, meaning, and signals in what may appear fragmented, incomplete, or without clear function. In these encounters, spaces emerge where language and the absence of language becomes a site of poetic experience-making through material, body, and action.
