How  does  your  background  in  advertising  influence  your
             artistic   approach,   especially   when   considering   the
             communicative   power   of   visual   language   in   both
             commercial and artistic spaces?
             My background in advertising has given me a strong understanding
             of  visual  language,  especially  how  it  can  quickly  convey  emotions
             and  narrative.  In  both  commercial  and  artistic  contexts,  visual
             language is essential for engaging viewers, and I apply this to create
             immersive  experiences  that  invite  interaction.  This  experience  also
             taught  me  how  to  balance  aesthetic  appeal  with  emotional  depth,
             allowing  me  to  create  a  unique  style  that  expresses  my  own
             exploration of self and identity. I often hear my work described as
             “creepy” or “charged,” which resonates with me because it captures
             the intensity and tension I feel in my self-exploration. I think of my
             work as a reflection of my inner journey, constantly challenging and
             redefining what it means to be human.
             Your  work  often  invites  introspection  and  reflection  from
             the viewer. What kind of emotional or intellectual responses                        The Body in Blue
             do  you  hope  to  evoke,  and  how  do  you  design  your                     Experimental video, 2024
             environments to facilitate these experiences?             The Body in Blue is a multi-media work that explores the
             I hope my work allows viewers to see parts of themselves in it and to  close  connection  between  the  physical  body  and  the

             visual and auditory elements that bypass pure rationality. This open-
             ended narrative allows viewers to engage with the work on their own
             terms, finding their own meanings and connections. This emotional
             resonance is essential, allowing each person to take away a unique
             experience.




                             Comet Tail
                   Experimental video, 2024
             The  comet's  tail  retraces  and
             reconstructs   memories   into
             prophetic   symbols.   Using
             uncaptured,  hidden,  fragments  of
             memory  in  the  environment,  the
             artist   explores   the   potential
             destinies   predetermined   by
             astrological images moulded from
             immediate   trajectories   of

             taboos  and  regrets  of  women  in
             the margins of history.
