Artist Statement

I seek to create in the contemporary while keeping an eye on what is to come, merging the past and the future to conceive a different version of the present. The conjunction of technology and craft defines my vision and expression, inspired by the symbiosis between the natural and the artificial that we experience on a daily basis, between the organic and the systematic as a constantly evolving language.

My current work is intertwined with bio-art, sustainable practices and three-dimensional format using biomaterials and organic waste as vehicles of morphological construction. In my artistic practice, through this intersection between art, science and research, I seek not only to explore new forms of beauty, but also to critically promote environmental awareness and reflection on our relationship with the natural environment.

I am fluent in the use of technology as a tool for expression in both the digital and tangible realms, guided by a multidisciplinary background and an innate curiosity.
