"In my installation works I draw on patterns from nature and images from daily life, altogether forming hybrid landscapes which blur the line between the real and the imagined, the organic and the artificial, the chaotic and the orderly. The multiple layers of repurposed materials, both found and from my studio work, reflect my preoccupation with ephemerality-recycled, torn, stacked, manipulated-alluding to obsolescence, ecology, and transience."
