​

"My artistic practice is an exploration of the relationship between aesthetics and societal critique. My work presents almost utopian scenarios that display unrealistic expectations of perfectionism and materialism. Central to my art are motifs of women, often with covered eyes, symbolizing the pressure of aesthetic standards propagated through social media. The emotions in my work are only partially discernible, reflecting how superficial judgments often overlook the complexities of human emotions and experiences. I create works that are at first aesthetically pleasing but ultimately question the influence of societal norms on individual identity. I like working with irony, inserting subtle layers of meaning into my work to challenge perceptions.

​

Utilizing acrylic and spray paints on canvas, I use bold color combinations and a technique of layering paint, starting with a thick background and scratching motifs into it before adding fresh layers."

​

Furthermore, her recognition value is also based on fictional bear characters, which mainly address cultural /societal topics.
