Selected for the National Ceramics Award and the 2024 International Visual Art Biennale, her work focuses on ceramics, exploring the symbolic materiality and permanence that this medium suggests. Her practice also includes painting, installation, and performance, mediums that, when combined, enrich and expand themes such as trace and imprint, the body and memory, creating pieces that oscillate between embrace and jolt. Through her work, she seeks to make visible what often remains hidden or suspended in everyday life: echoes of the unspoken and memories that become heavy, silently shaping identity. Her work invites us to make the intangible tangible and open spaces for reflection that transcend individual experience.
