Focusing on long-term projects, my work explores the spiritual and the perceptual dimensions of the human experience in relation to the planet and the cosmos. Captivated by the secret order of nature, and the contradiction of how some opposites must bond to exist, my projects aim to create new senses by combining incompatibles intuitively, where ambiguity accidentally
becomes meaningful or reveals truth.
