Work

My paintings and sculptures are fragments of narratives and dreams through which I explore how painting and sculpting generate ideas, maintain associations, and evokes emotional reactions in the viewer. With this, I research the relationships between personal and collective memory, as well as the relationships between structures and their content. My practice begins with creating studio-based digital collages and sometimes installations, made from materials such as found objects, fabrics, printouts, magazines, wires, and wood, which are then photographed and deconstructed. My latest body of work consists of paintings with surreal sculptural structures and sculptures that lie somewhere between reality and the subconscious, which are simultaneously hiding and revealing their actions.
