About Me
I create a visual world where familiar images from Northern nature, folk art, and traditional tales take on new forms. Working across painting, ceramics, illustration, and large-scale murals, I bring these sources together with my personal experience and contemporary ways of seeing the world, preserving their recognizability while allowing them to transform.
My artistic language has been shaped by the intersection of two cultural and natural landscapes: the northern landscape of my origins and the Mediterranean environment where I live today. This distance has deepened my connection to the past; returning to northern traditions becomes a way of preserving the memory of where I come from and expressing gratitude for the place that shaped my perception of the world.

Northern nature has always been more than a background to me — it has been an independent presence. Folk traditions, stories, and mythology have shaped the way I understand images, and these influences continue to live within my artistic language.
For me, folk art is a living language that continues to evolve. Rather than reproducing tradition, I carry it forward, creating new forms at the intersection of memory, nature, and personal experience.
In my work, humans, animals, and plants intertwine, transforming into fantastical forms of life. These figures exist between reality and imagination, where the boundaries between human and nature remain open and constantly shifting.
Materiality and handcraft are essential parts of my practice. Regardless of the medium, I am drawn to the ability of materials to hold memory and create a connection between the past and the present.
