To criticize the agressive world we live in, I aim to create a safe space. I take certain visual aspects I consider threatening from outside environments and disarm them in my work. One where shape, color and material meet in an abstract way, forming the language of my practice.
I encounter the images in my everyday life, which I then translate into drawings, videos or textiles. My wish is to create a space where people can feel seen and strengthened to appropriate the world for themselves.
