My concentration has centered on the use of bacterial cellulose,a nanofibrous structure that emerges from the fermentation of Kombucha brewing. This growth is not just a physical manifestation but also a
metaphorical narrative, symbolizing the flourishing of material only in a healthy environment. Employing microbes as a symbolic tool to consider the virtues of collaboration, particularly in our current volatile societal landscape. Viewing microbial interaction as a philosophical gateway, my exploration encompasses themes of community and transcending communication barriers between species.
My artist expression is rooted in my interest to bridge the realms of science, art and education. I perceive art as an instrument with the dual power to entertain and educate. Drawing from my background in Spatial Design, my ultimate goal is to immerse viewers in a place where perception, sensation, and emotion meet. I’m committed to making art that coexists harmoniously with our planet.
