Since I can remember, I have been looking and finding parallel ways to express my internal fluctuations and bursts. In my installations, I found inspiration in the mechanical process of mixing different media with an emphasis on fibers, plaster, clay and found objects. Often I find inspiration through the observation of organic forms. Lately I have been implementing the concept of organic themes in to the process of my 2D and 3D work; Emphasizing the dramatic transition in the process of physical and spiritual changes. This work revolves around the idea that identity or form has not a fast or a clear answer, but more a continuous process of transformation and metamorphosis. I found this transition of state a crucial constant and one of the core concepts of evolution. The everlasting mutation of things and the sense of tensions and dissonances between form and formlessness. I also apply the theme of my work to site-specific projects emphasizing the idea of change within hider undeveloped or developed urban environment highlighting the dynamism of metamorphosis and the fullness and the emptiness of life.
