"My pieces capture glimpses of ‘aimless expressions’ featured as disruptions or glitches within a self-made system. The works therefore present an unfamiliar internal logic and reveal its complete futility by disrupting this attempt at self-established order."

"These works consist of a series of explorations that test whether aimlessness can emerge under conditions of rigidity and order, or whether these two ideas are essentially at odds with each other, unable to occupy the same space."
