I am an interdisciplinary artist exploring the relationships between representation, mediation, and perception. My practice investigates how technological systems shape the production and experience of images, questioning the stability of the original and the conditions through which meaning is constructed. 

Working across painting, moving image, and installation, I combine historical image-making methods with experimental technologies. Meticulous painting techniques, photography, and early video systems converge in works that examine how images are transformed as they move between media. 

Influenced by artists including Vija Celmins, Gerhard Richter, and Nam June Paik, alongside media theory and phenomenology, my work positions itself within broader networks of mediation. Rather than resolving the image, I seek to reveal the conditions through which it comes into being.
