A body is never neutral - it is read through norms, gendered expectations, and invisible hierarchies; it carries memory, stores trauma, remembers care and holds knowledge. The body appears in my practice as a site where inscriptions, conflicts, and power relations are negotiated. A site of vulnerability, but also of resistance.

At the core of my work lie dualisms: the binary architectures through which Western culture organizes value and legitimacy. I am drawn to the moments in which these structures destabilize – where binaries contradict themselves, collapse, or begin to dissolve into one another. I look for these in-between states, where softness begins to harden, solidity starts to dissolve, and agency is no longer fixed but renegotiated.

At the boundaries between our flesh and the flesh of the world, I seek to complicate any easy binary demarcations, any dualistic divisions and reclaim the fragmentation of our own bodies.

Although having a very embodied practice, my approach is deeply rooted in research. To me, theory became both scaffold and shield – a way of securing legitimacy, within institutions that did not feel designed for me.

My work is highly material-oriented. I often combine soft textiles with industrial or synthetic elements. I find myself instinctively gravitating toward materials at the interplay of tenderness and violence - alluring yet grotesque, holding - insisting on the in-between. Materials act upon me as I act upon them.
