My work operates in the territory of persistence rather than force, as a form of violence. Repetition that reshapes, that demands, and in time wears away. A process, often imperceptible, hidden within the familiar, that erodes the essence through the moulding of voice, aspirations, the body, and behaviour. A mandate imposed through what is expected, what is accepted, what is necessary. A system that demands continuation despite damage, and that permits no pause, no repair, no release.
In the early phases of my practice, I used conceptual photography and performative imagery in which the body was both subject and surface; a space where the marks of control, the effect of moulding, and erasure were made visible. Typography, in turn, has been the ground where language inscribes itself as a system of organization and control, and where typography itself resists it and leaks through. In my most recent phase, I have taken up material research through engineering methods, where tension, gravity, and structural damage become evidence of forced continuity.
My work does not redeem: it exposes a mechanism at work in the professional, familial, and social, and opens it to question. It registers persistence as a form of violence; one that is neither exceptional nor isolated, but collective and structurally shared.
