My work stems from the need to tell stories. Through the construction of a visual practice that explores the potential of the undesired in society I aim to weave together established social narratives with possible alternatives of looking. As an artist, I like the idea that imagination, memory (personal and collective) and repurposing can become acts of resistance. These reinterpretations foster the intrusion of a fictional/imagined experience into the ‘‘fixed’’ qualities of everyday reality.

Self-announced as a 'trash' collector, I use left overs, like those found around the house or left outside on the curb, to understand how human artifacts relate to themselves and to the unpredictable forces that penetrate our lives. Irony is a gun, a piercing force that breaks the imposing weight of our historical narratives. Nothing stays the same too long but I, as any good inhabitant of capitalism, must over-produce in order to make sense of my existence.

Dust will never settle on a surface that keeps rattling itself apart.
