I am interested in the perpetual metamorphosis that occurs in natural phenomena and their transformation in space and time. I need to explore my relationship with matter—from clay to cloud— and find a balance between this material exploration and the creative process, between intuition and rationality.

Geology, chemistry, meteorology often inform my artistic practice. I create objects and environments inspired by the natural world that merge with architectural environments to point to and reopen our perception of natural phenomena. I believe that language fundamentally shapes our perception, and the focus of my recent works has been on the metaphors that reify natural phenomena through familiar images such as “fog veil,” “forest carpet” and “river bed.” Through writing and material exploration, I analyze these metaphors, establish new connections, and explore the outward signs of this new interaction. Using different materials and techniques, I multiply the potential relationships among elements in a given environment. In doing so, my kinetic sculptures and installations suggest experiences, independent of our normal perception of time and space, in a hypothetical elsewhere where meaning is perpetually slipping.

By trying to understand my relationship to nature, I inevitably transform it and transform myself at the same time. I believe that art can shed some light on that metamorphosis. Essentially, what I try to communicate, as simply as possible, is my appreciation for such flow of unforming and reforming interconnection and interchangeability of meaning in language and in the perception of natural phenomena.
