autonomous work

Material serves as my lens through which I examine normative structures and specific sociologial phenomena.

I am truly in my element when I employ textile crafting alongside artistic research into sociological phenomena as an independent mode of knowledge production, rather than treating it as a purely executive discipline.

I find fashion fascinating because our ‘fashions’ (our ways of doing things) and our material culture allow usquestion who we are as human beings within a specific time and space.

I am an artist and an artisan. In my process, my technical knowledge and skills are not merely tools for executing a pre-conceived image. Rather, they form the basis of how I think. As I navigate daily life, I frequently encounter (and occasionally clash with) normative phenomena within our society.

I translate these theoretical issues into the material realm. I do this to initiate a dialogue. First for myself within the studio, and subsequently with the viewer.

The interdisciplinary nature of my approach lies in this constant connection: I invariably link the act of making to a sociological and feminist perspective. In doing so, I apply classical techniques (such as pattern drafting, draping, and textile manipulation) to new, non-textile materials, thereby questioning the boundaries between body, object, and sculpture.

In each of my work I zoom in on a specific sociological or normative theme. Mt work is about memory, womanhood, decay and making.
