In my work I explore how we experience time and space, and how these fundamental coordinates shape our lives. Time seems the same for everyone, yet each person relates to it differently. Where physics measures time (chronos), we experience it as something personal and intuitive (kairos). We measure space as well, but how we perceive it differs: spacious or confining, familiar or strange.

That fascination began early. As a child, I felt the limitations of the walls erected around me. Since then, I have carried a longing for spaciousness, timelessness and freedom.

My practice is multidisciplinary, spanning photography, sculpture, installation and living material. I combine conceptual and scientific research with experimental ways of working.

Currently, I work with mycelium and SCOBY: living material in which time unfolds within the matter itself, as it grows, changes and decays at its own pace. I cannot fully steer that development. The resulting works arise from an interplay between my choices and the processes of the material, in which it is not settled where agency lies.

Earlier, my longing for spaciousness and timelessness took shape in AEON, an installation with photographs, light and sound, in which time is not a straight line for the visitor, but a cycle. In some photographic series I explore how time shapes memory, in others space without reference to scale.

By connecting the personal and emotional with the theoretical and abstract, I make time and space tangible to the viewer.
