Artist Statement

My art is a reflection about life; it encompasses concepts and processes providing a connection between the visible and invisible. I try to integrate a visual narrative, political and social issues, women’s vulnerability, confusion, contradictions, and a personal experience of nomadic life that can resonate with millions of people. I work with fluidity letting my mind work with passion together with my whole-body exploring materials and processes, incorporating life experience and acquired knowledge. While experimenting, I feel free to connect the spiritual and physical, to past and present, fears and love allowing the mystery of life to reveal itself.
