My artwork transforms everyday objects into powerful, cross-cultural symbols that resonate universally. By grouping these familiar items, I explore the diverse experiences and relationships that shape contemporary life. My sculptures are often crafted from simple, recognizable objects.

Removing these objects from their usual functions and contexts, I aim to challenge perceptions and evoke curiosity. Rather than pushing into pure abstraction, I exaggerate, minimize, or distort certain features to bring them closer to the viewer, encouraging questions: What is this? What is its purpose? How do these objects relate?

Craftsmanship and aesthetic integrity are central to my practice, as I experiment with a variety of materials and techniques to uncover the inherent beauty within these everyday items. Through this process, I seek a harmonious integration of form and meaning, inviting contemplation of the ordinary as a source of profound reflection.
