Artist

Through my practice, I am looking for new forms of existence within the hierarchical social and cultural systems of society. I am interested in the narrative where scholarly and artistic imagination overlap. I imagine the possibility of renewing historical narratives, reconfiguring methods of exhibition display, sharing the means of production with other artists, and the possibility of actual solidarity. I’m asking myself how to be a political artist under authoritarian governments without direct aggressive gestures but instead with a social empathy embedded in painterly and sculptural form through constant interaction with individuals and communities. My primary artistic focus is large-scale paintings, videos and shadow installations based on historical contradictions. The interviews with representatives of various social groups are the starting point for most of my work.
