In confronting reality, I wander among nets—searching, through touch and repetition, for roots within loss.

01 / THE PRACTICE

Fragility as a form of presence.

My practice transforms textile into sculptural presence. Working with lace, net fabric, and embroidery, I cast fragile domestic materials in resin.

02 / BODIES OF WORK

Three stories. One universe.

From translucent lace to pigment, embroidery and daily rituals — each series follows the material into meaning.

03 / MATERIAL & MEMORY

Each stitch holds a trace.

In her work, fabric and embroidery are not merely tools. Through repetition and an accumulation of material, the work takes shape as a record of embodied experience.
