Playing with an aesthetic of decomposition, she stages characters with mute and incomplete bodies, immersed in an abyssal atmosphere. By degrading the negative with bleach, she cuts through the bodies with blue and vaporous forms. The negative becomes an extension of the artist’s skin, and damaging its surface becomes a form of therapy to combat a tendency towards self-harm that she experienced as a teenager. This work, as an expression of her internal tensions, evokes solitude and the embodiment of distress resulting from societal norms and expectations regarding our appearance and emotions.
