Artist Statement

Most of my works are live installations/performances, videos and/or photographs, inspired by everyday life and unremarkable moments. I am fascinated by the concept of boredom. I focus on all aspects of motherhood. I investigate the psychological changes that mother go through to find out how NEW identities are constructed. I document seemingly ordinary activities to re-create the reality of the very emotional experiences. The creative process transforms these experiences and awards them with a new concept.
