RESEARCH LINES
Through the poetics of the image, her artistic work explores the territories where the boundaries between reality and fiction converge. In recent projects, she investigates pain, healing processes, states of the soul, and motherhood as a transformative process. Nature, often in the form of landscapes, plays a central role in her work, inviting reflection. Some of the research lines that she explores in her work include: – Photography as a space for thought and creation.
– Poetics of the image: body – emotion – landscape. The use of symbolic and poetic language in artistic practice as a means of connecting the body with the emotional and spiritual (states of the soul, body transformations, displaced identities).
– Motherhood and creation: motherhood as a transformative experience and creative space.
