In my artistic practice, I often turn to simple, naive motifs, depicting various fictional, zoomorphic characters. My works explore the connection between humans and nature, as well as bodily metamorphoses. My art opens up a fairy-tale world where life is continuously re-imagined through imagination, creating a dialogue between the inner and outer worlds, where humans and animals live in harmony, sometimes merging with one another. This allows for the revelation of deeper truths about our existence and provides an opportunity for everyone to change, transform, and become someone or something else. I draw inspiration for my works from folk art, mythology, and everyday life. I work with traditional techniques such as graphics, ceramics, textiles, and drawing, combining them with modern technologies.
