My sculptures are acts of care.
Repairing, reassembling, reconstructing what is broken.
A practice shaped by motherhood, precarity, and the absence of time and space for “pure” creation.
“For several years now, I have realized that my sculptures are attempts to care for and repair something broken. Rather than creating from scratch, my practice revolves around fixing, reassembling, and reconstructing. These gestures emerge from a condition shaped by motherhood, precarity, the absence of a stable studio, and limited time for ‘pure’ creation”.
