Biography
I am an interdisciplinary contemporary artist working across performance art, photography, painting, and drawing. My practice is body-based and concept-driven, grounded in post-humanism, where the body operates both as subject and method.
A central part of my work is self-directed performance, in which I use my own body to construct temporary situations that are later translated into photography and drawing. Rather than functioning as self-portraits, these works become traces of encounters and perceptual events, where the boundary between observer and participant is unstable.
In my recent series, I work with watercolour expanded into natural pigments, including beetroot juice and lemon juice on paper. This material shift reflects an interest in post-human and organic image-making processes, where the image remains chemically and temporally active. The paper surface becomes a site of transformation — absorption, dissolution, presence and disappearance.
