As a multidisciplinary artist exploring the realms of photography, video, and sculpture, my practice delves into the intricate layers of perception within our visually saturated society. Through direct interventions on prints, I employ painting or gilding techniques to manipulate and challenge the content, prompting viewers to question the conventional narratives embedded within photographic imagery. Additionally, by intentionally breaking lenses, I disrupt traditional notions of visual accuracy, offering new perspectives on timeless themes found in art history: portraits, nudes, landscapes, still lifes, and abstraction. Through these dynamic techniques, I invite audiences to reconsider their relationship with the visual world and the enduring relevance of artistic expression.
