Fascinated by the potential of new materials, I constantly explore diverse media. The process of mastering a new medium and developing my artistic voice within it is a source of inspiration. This exploration extends to the materials' physical origins and chemical makeup. Testing their properties, limits, and applications inspires the artist and scientist within me, merging analytical and intuitive approaches into a single, inseparable artistic process.

Visually captivated by the intricate details of wood, clay, and natural pigments, I find inspiration directly from working with them. Beauty for me not only emerges in the final work, but also within the scientific exploration itself. The microscope reveals a universe of beauty at the cellular level, a hidden experience that informs my art. This intertwining of scientific and creative processes defines my practice. Experimenting with natural forms, transparent materials, and natural pigments, I invite viewers to engage with the research that shapes my work.
