In a world that assigns value based on productivity, that constantly wants more and faster, I choose to be slow. How do we decide who or what is valuable? I engage with this question on a small scale—I see it everywhere in my daily life. In exhaustion, in grief, in longing.
In my work, I find grounding in a method—practicing care, attention, and wish. Care begins with reusing materials that would otherwise be discarded, giving them new value by keeping and transforming them. Attention means appreciating the small things we often overlook. Wish is about rejecting apathy and opening up to new possibilities.
My small sculptures and installations invite viewers to pause and reflect on the small, the everyday, and the unproductive. They create space for a different way of thinking, beyond the demands of capitalism, and ask the viewer to wish and dream of what could be—if only for a little.
