About
My artistic practice is rooted in interaction. Through participatory processes, sculpture and embodied encounters, I create works and situations in which people are invited to encounter themselves and their surroundings, exploring how environments change and how our relationships with them are shaped in the process. I am interested in how these relationships are formed through bodily experience, personal and collective histories, and often through sensations that remain outside conscious attention.
Embodied thinking, empathy, and the fostering of connection are central to my practice. I work with the body not only as a subject but as a site of perception, memory and encounter. Drawing and working directly on the skin have long been part of my practice. The intimacy of touch, shared presence and trust involved in these encounters has shaped the way I understand artistic practice as something that emerges between people rather than being produced by the artist alone.
In recent years, my work has increasingly extended these questions beyond human relationships towards soil and more-than-human communities. I am interested in how our bodies are materially and evolutionarily connected to the living world beneath our feet, and what it might mean to understand ourselves through our dependence on these relationships. My work moves between the intimate and the planetary, exploring connections that exceed distinctions between the local and the global.
My work seeks to make these often unnoticed relationships perceptible. Rather than approaching the environment as something surrounding us, I ask how we might understand ourselves as participants within it.
