The starting point of the process is a personal need to explore invisible shapes and forms, inaudible sounds, the importance, beauty and danger of touch, which brings one into a relationship with one's own body. On the one hand, the artist investigates and records the transformations of the materiality of nature, as well as the inscribing of human traces in these materials, and on the other hand, she processes the materials from the location in the studio and investigates their characteristics, follows them and organizes them in a way that results in new comparisons and connections between the materials themselves, them and her, them and the objects that create them, and them and the space in which they are located.
The artist is interested in changes, the creation of new forms, heterogeneity and processes in duration, which are no longer just a tool for representation, but through their interaction we can see what is somehow hidden. (Source: the author)
