"Girls Lunch" belongs to "Inside Out" Series.

This Series comes from the need of looking myself from inside out and going deeper on my search for new mediums and textures in my art.

"Girls Lunch"

Farewell

Entreprise

Each of the representations of an object in our mind represents a different reality. We do not have definite information that we can infer about the origin and foundation of the truth. The truth itself is also a phenomenon that is perceived by time and mind, and its origin is relative. In _Reflection_, two objects are brought together to create a contrast. Mirrors placed on the surface show us their own realities. In fact, all objects act as mirrors because they shape the light according to themselves.

**GAUGE. Film Loop. 2013 - 2015\.** 

  
Created on Baffin Island in the Canadian Arctic, _Gauge_ employs and investigates the natural forces of time, extreme temperatures and the ever-moving environment to dictate the process of painting on a grand scale.

  
Monumental ice walls appear to emerge out of the frozen ocean, due to the rise and fall of the tide beneath the ice which moves upwards of ten metres on a twelve-hour cycle. Three artists use natural food colouring and burnt cow bone for black, to mark the temporary ice walls. Using fire extinguishers and paint sprayers, the artists must work parallel to the tide, as the frozen floor on which they stand collapses and shifts.

  
The short-lived works are subject to friction, ocean and temperature, which quickly erase the paintings, washing the images from memory, back into the Arctic Ocean.

Pooh Bear

“Freestyle” is a personal journey meant to highlight the dualistic and often paradoxical interplay between individuality and leadership. While leadership subdues individuality, it is individuality that gives rise to leadership through its own personal growth, thus creating a self-perpetuating and self-limiting cycle. In my piece, this is represented through the creation of an indented environment, in which figures/bodies are subjected to extreme manipulation as they track the inputs interposed by the artist. Their expressions grow stronger and more passionate, no doubt reflecting their more confident sense of selves, yet they simultaneously fall under the ever-growing control of the Leader, the artist. “Freestyle” forces its viewer to experience an infinite amount of possibilities and limitations for movement and acts within closed space simultaneously. This “uncomfortable performance” yearns for the audience’s feedback, but pays no heed to it, in homage to much of the popular culture icons’ behavior on social media, as well as the populist politicians.

 Looking back at the art I’ve made before, where I desired for unexpected expressions, I’ve concluded for myself that true joy is found in reclaiming freedom of expression in the most controlled environments rather than having it thrown upon you as a gift of birthright. Something earned is always more valuable than something received for free. This is the journey that I went through personally, and I hope to take my audience through it as well.

Freestyle

 In my work, I care about the narrative of an emotion or idea as opposed to portraying it in an illustrative sense, and I'm often trying to explore the duality of opposing ideas within this abstract landscape.

I do not have a sequential narrative in my paintings, because I do not believe expression within painting is just a tale to be told, I believe it is something more complex and yet harder to define. 

Themes that run through this particular painting are; joy and liberation, freedom and abandon and panic.

"Dark Matter"

Forest vases

To contextualize decontextualized spaces and to reach a wider public, the artist brings the rubble from Berlin reflected in her photographs into the exhibition spaces to bring them back into the public consciousness.


Public Memory- II

The Thinking Eye

This work is part of the installation "my playbench in the workground." This work is a reimagination of the origin of a Euclidean space. Usually denoted by the letter O, the origin point is used as a fixed point of reference for the geometry of the surrounding space. This work uses a playful sculptural language to critique the arbitrariness of norms, standards, rules, regulations, and ideologies imposed on our daily life and to question the power relations associated with the standardization.

O(0,0,0,0)

The artwork is aimed to visually narrate the tension between the pollution of ocean in Pacific, Atlantic and the life of Gannet Birds. 

Gannet Bird 

A work from the childhood series. During childhood our dreams are vast and open.

Childhood dreams

Art that embraces the lightness and aesthetics of the sunlit environment. It's about finding a balance between being in control of artwork and letting the paint flow freely.

Golden Rain

My latest fine art series exploring the human body.
