ABOUT:
Capturing personal memories through sculptural paintings is at the core of my practice. I work with acrylic paint, oil pastels, fabric, textiles, and knitting, often incorporating ribbon as a way to reclaim and celebrate clichéd femininity. These materials help me construct a soft, colourful world filled with playfulness, movement, and nostalgia. By focusing on specific moments, I translate felt emotions into exaggerated, immersive art forms. My paintings, rooted in blind drawings or photographs of significant experiences, hold a deep emotional charge—infused with love, memory, and a sense of release.
Drowsy feelings and fantasy are central to my work, inviting viewers into a dreamlike space that portrays the emotional essence of an experience rather than its literal reality. My pieces often extend beyond the traditional canvas, becoming three-dimensional objects or staged installations. Each work is placed within an environment specific to its story, accompanied by poetry, motion, or performance, further enhancing its immersive nature.
Through tactility and material exploration, my work encourages a playful engagement with identity and emotion. I hope to create spaces where viewers can connect with their own stories, finding both joy and introspection in the experience.
