My work navigates between diverse sources, exploring contrasts such as craftsmanship and mass production, nostalgia and technological progress, and the everyday versus the absurd. I examine the interaction between culture, society, and our relationship with objects and images. Themes such as play, display, absurdism, theater, and industry play a significant role, with harmony and conflict creating a dynamic tension.

These elements influence how we perceive our daily lives and the world around us. They reflect the human need for connection, entertainment, competition, and collaboration, providing a framework to challenge social norms and behaviors. By combining playful elements with industrial motifs or theater with display, new connections emerge. This layered approach makes my work both satirical and reflective, exploring how identity and façade are positioned within societal structures.
