from blank to blank

my work moves between the visual avant-garde, utopian and dystopian literature, historical pain, and everyday dark humour

i am interested in how beauty, silence, monstrosity, movement, diplomacy, and technocracy reorganise what becomes visible, as well as in what anomalous cases reveal about otherwise normal structures and systems
