Artist Statement


My work engages with symbolic materials, cultural objects, pre-existing imagery, and everyday rituals to respond to and reimagine questions of belonging and becoming. I employ materials with symbolic power to hijack and reanimate imagery and objects that resonate deeply with experiences tied to identity, gender, and migration. Through this process, I destabilize inherited narratives and transform the familiar into spaces where alternative reinterpretations can emerge.
