My practice is guided by the inherent qualities of my materials. I’m drawn to objects that are worn, discarded, or overlooked—elements that carry traces of time and use. Through processes of repetition, reconfiguration, and accumulation, I transform the ordinary into something unexpected, allowing new associations to emerge. I’m particularly interested in the point at which material begins to assert itself—when control gives way to discovery, and forms take on a presence that feels both familiar and strange. The work develops as a dynamic system, shaped over time rather than predetermined, where structure emerges through sustained engagement.
