Arts Thread

For me, making art is a way of translating perceptions into material and spatial experiences. My practice explores the temporal and narrative dimensions of objects, shifting between personal memory and institutional archives. I’m particularly interested in how material culture, from everyday belongings to museum artefacts which accumulates layered histories and changing meanings over time. Working across installation, sculpture, video, and text, I draw from research in art history, archaeology, and object theory. Many of my projects are informed by interdisciplinary independent research and in-depth engagement with collections and archival materials within institutional contexts. Recently, I have become increasingly focused on the act of collecting as a means of shaping subjective time and examining the tension between preservation and reinterpretation. For me, making art is a way of translating perceptions into material and spatial experiences.

This body of work traces the development of two interconnected trajectories in my practice: one grounded in intimate, lived experience, and the other engaging critically with historical and institutional narratives. This body of work traces the development of two interconnected trajectories in my practice: one grounded in intimate, lived experience, and the other engaging critically with historical and institutional narratives.
