I create temporary sculptural environments that transform familiar spaces into strange, playful, and living worlds.
Working across installation, sculpture, and scenography, my practice explores what happens when something artificial begins to feel organic, and when something seemingly banal becomes unexpectedly sincere.

My work is driven by a fascination with transformation and impermanence. 
Familiar materials like balloons are taken out of their expected context and given the possibility to become something else. 
Through this process, ordinary things can become monumental, playful, strange, or unexpectedly vulnerable.

my queer identity is an important part of how I communicate through my art. It informs an interest in fluidity, contradiction, and the possibility of existing beyond fixed definitions. My work often embraces humour and absurdity alongside sincerity, creating environments that do not take themselves too seriously while still allowing space for emotion and wonder.

Much of my work takes shape within nightlife, clubs, queer spaces and performance. My installations become activated through the people who enter them, creating temporary environments that exist for a moment before inevitably changing, fading, and disappearing.

At the heart of the practice is a desire to create moments in which something feels briefly unfamiliar, unexpected, and alive.
