ARTIST STATEMENT
My artistic practice reflects on my experience of immigration and the ongoing transformation that forms both my inner and outer worlds. Drawing on personal archives,
I trace my own evolution through the history of my family, the hybridization of identities, and the merging of cultures. I am interested in how memory, displacement, and belonging intertwine, and how the past continuously sculpts the present. Themes of the body complement and deepen this exploration. I see the body as a landscape of memory and change, a living reminder of the finite nature of life.
By observing the shifts between my former and current selves, between home and
a new place, I create my own visual language — a synthesis of family semiotics
and the reality I live today.
My approach is interdisciplinary: I work with textiles, embroidery, sculpture, installation. Through these media, I translate personal sensations of change into universal symbols of human experience. My work speaks of growth, vulnerability, and the effort to preserve identity while everything around us is unstable.
