I am an interdisciplinary installation artist working with paper, fabric, thread, light, and found materials to investigate systems of care, labor, migration, and collective memory, particularly as they shape women’s lived experiences. Informed by my scientific education, my practice explores interconnected systems, repetition, and spatial relationships through immersive environments that viewers physically navigate.
Drawing from storytelling traditions, domestic architecture, and community engagement, I construct installations that examine invisible and often unpaid forms of labor embedded within caregiving, migration, and inherited cultural memory. Through suspended forms, layered translucency, shadow, and material accumulation, my work creates psychologically charged spaces that reveal tensions between visibility and concealment, intimacy and vulnerability, individual memory and collective experience.
