Statement

My artwork navigates the threshold between anxiety and delirium, rendered through detailed, hallucinatory visuals. Beginning with pen and ink illustrations, I allowed dark, dynamic, and figure focused themes to emerge organically. My influences range from the surrealism of Burroughs and Ballard to the drama of Renaissance painting, intertwined with personal reflection on a life of surgeries and a decade immersed in Berlin’s art scene.

Currently, I use photography and sculpture to give structure to this internal dialog. While my work is deeply personal, it often expands to explore shared experiences of social connection and tension. I reflect on questions such as: what is changed in a creative moment? How do societal anxieties surface within it? And how might we challenge dominant societal values? New materialist philosophy, with it’s emphasis on the agency of matter, informs my process - dissolving hierarchies between model and material, granting both equal presence within the frame. Whether through staged scenes or sculptural forms, my art becomes a synthesis of the intimate and the chaotic, a dialog between the self and the noise of contemporary life.
