“Key themes in my art practice are related to issues of agency, problems of communication and the impact of traumatic events on the individual. I work with long-term photographic projects, combining installation form, sculpture, performative video and sound. I am interested in the image of the contemporary person who experiences emotional instability, transitional states between stages of personal and social development. By reinterpreting my experience, exploring elements of my personal archive, it is as if I am an indicator, emphasizing the problems and crises of my generation”
