Welcome
As artist-anthropologist I combine my artistic practice with ethnographic research. My work transforms lived experiences into multimodal artworks, from visual essays, documentary films and immersive online pieces to exhibitions and the development of participatory arts-based methods. I intend to surface unheard perspectives and make the unseen more tangible. I aim to challenge single narratives and create space for recognition, connection, and deeper engagement.
