I search for connection and I want to create it —with myself, with others, and with the world around me. Through my work, I create spaces for introspection and interaction, inviting wonder and reflection. I don’t shy away from what’s happening in society, but try to approach it with openness and reflection. My work often takes the form of installations, yet the medium remains free. Playfulness is my method, wonder is my compass, and connection is my goal.
Currently I’m trying to pay my rent and simultaniously trying to finish my first art exposition. If you would be intrested in buying my art to get a beautifil artpiece and help me with the becoming;
Series: I need to pay rent

Interactive spatial instellation that creates connection

In an increasingly individualistic society, we aim to create connection. Human connection is a fundamental basis for both individuals and society. We have translated this goal into an installation powered by human connection—literally, through holding each other’s hands.
By using the principle of conducting electricity through people, our installation only activates when the handles are linked together in a human chain. This connection manifests for the audience as a floating, undulating disco ceiling, symbolizing boundless dancing and a sense of freedom. By lifting the ceiling from the club, setting it in motion through collective engagement, and moving it into open space, we showcase the power of togetherness.
For this design, we are upcycling partition panels that were used during the COVID-19 pandemic—transforming what once separated us into something that now brings us together
About me
Another day I will have time to write a better bio. For now, just know that the one thing I am sure of in life is that I need to create art and that I am dedicated to my craft.
I want to make it BIG! so I can have a bigger impact and create more connection and more love in this planet.
