Statement
Having experienced an earthquake, war, and a long migration process, I channel these profound events into my art, creating art objects that reflect my personal journey. I bring together distinct materials such as concrete, metal, textiles, and more, exploring their contrasts in texture and the challenges they present as a medium. Through this process of remembrance, I seek to reconstruct a narrative, reconnecting with lost details and unspoken truths that linger beneath the surface of time.-
