Spanning performance, photography, and jewelry, these projects invite reflection on interconnected space, social politics, and phenomenology. They explore how we are compelled to translate our emotions through the body as the backdrop of our experiences, delving into the complexities of our multidimensional, embodied existence and the challenges posed by two-dimensional communication. 

Works such as “Korperreifen” or “Hinter dir” address the space we occupy beyond the boundaries of our embodied existence and showcased how this increased awareness impacted personal movements and interactions with others. Pieces such as “74 Parts” and  “Oral Pathology” were inspired by researching metal-body relations as a manifestation of how social norms push us to rely on rigid materials for control, contrasting with the natural decay and fluidity of the body.
