We are part of a society of asymmetric power relations, in which values and basic human rights are violated and have become privileges.
While the world is reduced to black and white, I ask myself: what lies in between?
The sculptural elements of my work and the physical space it occupies emphasise three dimensionality, moving beyond flat representation to create environments that viewers can physically inhabit and navigate. This spatial engagement transforms the passive viewing experience into an active encounter with the complex realities depicted. The resulting works are not static objects but sites for potential connection, conceived to foster exchange and dialogue, encouraging a collective renegotiation of our shared social and political landscapes. My work is an invitation to engage with the construction of reality and imagine alternative ways of living and organising our society.
