"My practice explores matter as an autonomous agent, capable of corroding, altering, and sedimenting the surfaces that compose my work. I do not seek to control the process; on the contrary, the work arises from a loss of control, from encounters with the unpredictable reactions of rust, cement, oxidations, leaves, bleach, oil paint, sand, and copper sulfate. These materials act as living forces, transforming surfaces and allowing images to emerge that could never have been designed in advance.
Each work thus becomes a living process, a space where matter, image, and time continuously interact. What initially appears can dissolve, reappear, or mutate, leaving traces of stratification and sedimentation. The surface is never stable: it is constantly evolving, suspended between presence and disappearance, control and chance.
The body, particularly in more recent works such as Porous Bodies, follows the same dynamic when it appears. Increasingly abstract, it dissolves into the surrounding environment, merging with matter and time. This gesture reflects a broader tension: who are we in relation to the world that passes through us? How much of our identity can we truly control, and how much is transformed by the external forces that surround us?
The places I choose are spaces where I sense accumulations of presences, emotions, and transformations experienced over time. They contain stratified, shifting, and often confused identities that emerge through the matter I work with. These spaces interact with the materials, amplifying unpredictable reactions and making the work a living organism, where surface, time, and environment traverse each other. The work becomes a field of transformations, where what seems stable is always suspended between presence and dissolution, between control and chance, reflecting the unstable nature of identity and the world around us."
