Artist Statement
I am a performance-based artist and artistic researcher whose work moves through intersections of dramaturgy, identity, and space-time concepts. My practice unfolds between the body and its surrounding environments, tracing the residues of borders or the in-between of times and spaces.
The construction of my work begins through acts of collecting gestures, fragments, and remnants of space. These become entry points into a process of layering, erasing, and recomposing, where the boundaries between disciplines and individual materials begin to blur. Instead, boundaries can be displaced to view creation and the world through a different lens: one that is fluid, relational, and open to transformation.
I often weave text, movement, film, projection, visual art, and embodied processes to form hybrid compositions. These works emerge as sites of reflection and encounter, as spaces where traces of the personal and political intersect.
Guided by decolonial thought and performance philosophy, my practice and research explores how knowledge is carried through the body and matter, and how performance can open other ways of sensing, knowing, and being-with the world.
