Atelier, Residency at Bridderhaus, Esch-sur-Alzette, Luxembourg, 2025
As a multidisciplinary artist, I explore the connections between material, memory, identity and environment. My work encompasses installations, performances and ceramic processes, frequently incorporating interactive elements and making use of wild clay and natural materials to inform the creative process. Through the lens of mental ecology, I attune to the agency of materials, the rhythms of the land and the interplay between human and non-human entities. I create spaces where matter, memory and meaning intertwine to foster reflection, interaction and dialogue with the world around us.
