Statement

My work explores the manner that our way of living results in social and ecological vulnerabilities. I am attracted by the power that everyday objects and materials have and for that reason I use scrap materials and other insignificant objects in my practice.

I experiment with the scale and size of these objects to give them different meanings and highlight their role.

My artworks aim to depict such objects and materials in a playful and ironic way and to stimulate the viewers to think about the potential of objects that they take for granted. Reflecting these issues, I create sculptures mostly by discarded materials, wood, metal and acrylic plastic.
