My art is multidisciplinary employing installation, painting and sculpture. In recent years, the starting point for my creative process has been the nuclear family, and the imprints of my childhood experience. I explore the way in which documentation (through family photos, letters and papers) affects the shaping of the private memory as a personal and a replicated experience. Together with my attempt to retrieve daily moments from the past, my work also examines self-forgetfulness and the blurring of memory.
Concrete materials inspire and ignite my creative process. I utilize personal materials, including pages from diaries and letters, tracing paper and transparencies, as well as industrial materials such as nylon and cardboard. My creative work reflects my preoccupation with the concept and perception of time: it is multilayered with a preparation process that is lengthy and repetitive.
Patterns taken from my old coloring books are a key element in my work creating order. They have a dual role to either disassemble a base-layer or an image randomly; or to organize, classify and label amorphic shapes into newly arranged and ornamented structures. A dialogue is created between the intimate and the alien, between the momentary and the duplicated, between the amorphic and the geometric.
