“My practice is organized around linguistic and semiotic concerns within the field of the visual -- exploring the internal politics of the gaze and the limits of representation, I work with phenomena such as perception, image origination, literalism, mythological aspects of perception, artistic thinking and memory.
In the project “572, my charm personal” I investigate the remnants of representations of mythological thinking at the interface with algorithmic thinking through the collision of different contextual images.
In the 'in other words' project, I explore the inner workings of art production, the emergence of meaning and the ultimate idea, using and critiquing from within the medium of photography.”
