- About Me:
- The focus of my work is based on social issues in a common political space. I create a different version of the world, a new reality, which is filtered by my point of view. The redevelopment of day-to-day events that pertain to communication, physical connections between people, childbearing and childhood are crucial to my work. To all of these themes I add poetic, inorganic and bizarre characteristics, of which relate to my sterile style of work. For each theme I work with a specific medium, which may range from leather, fabric, metal links and buckles, to clay, plaster, resin, paraffin/wax, silicone, to even oil on canvas. The selection of materials depends on the issues the project reflects and on how the plasticity of the materials relate to those issues. I work on one project at a time, creating different bodies of work. While producing one project, I make notes and sketches for a new one, occasionally relating to the former. This is how I continuously associate and build my work. In addition, my creations usually appear in the form of sculpture, performance, and more recently, painting. The performances are the consequences of my sculptures, functioning as prosthetic attachments to the subjects. These sculptures occasionally attach multiple human bodies, while at other times simply function as an extension of one individual. On the other hand, my paintings focus on more specific themes, such as that of the childish female. I portray a young female ballet dancer through a particular perspective linked to my personal methods of production to show the beauty of infantile innocence combined with the intrinsic obscurity associated with fear and nightmares. My goal is to share emotions with the viewer. By doing something different, I want to demonstrate that the world is not only about day-to-day, on-the-surface things, but also about our imaginations and feelings and how they influence us on a deeper level from day to day.
