In my artistic practice, I investigate natural and anthropological approaches to themes such as rituals and traditions, and their relation to the concept of time. I explore interactions between the passing of time, the earth, and its inhabitants (understood broadly), focusing on cycles of life, decay, and rebirth, as well as on repetition and transition. 

My fascination with the subject began in fear and confusion. Not understanding the rhythm I was expected to follow. I feared what it meant for new things to emerge and for trusted presences to disappear. I felt overwhelmed by a form of life imposed upon me, experienced without the guidance of connection. 

Over time, I found peace and understanding in the vulnerabilities of life – by perceiving time as a physical presence that creates rhythm and movement around us. Emerged through shapes that are juxtaposed and repeated, placed so rhythmically besides one another as if they seem to dance. These forms remind me of the movement of the earth: how the sun brings color, shadow and life; how the wind stretches and contracts; water that 

continuously sways, drips, and flows, reshaping stone and soil. I found peace in time expressed as rhythm – a force that allows the world around us to move and to settle into a kind of eternity. One that continually buries and resurfaces itself, a repetition that binds everything together. Time as an organism that constantly creates, decays, and resurrects. 

I am drawn to rituals and traditions, as they reveal relationships between humans and the world we inhabit. These practices acknowledge connections between the past, the present, and the future, and they often express gratitude toward the many forms of life that sustain and ensure the continuity and repetition of life. 

In my work, I explore different materials and their relationships to one another. Material becomes a reference, process, and value – a collaboration not only between materials themselves, but also between them, ourselves, and the world we enter into through them. A gesture, an awareness, a ritual.
