My practice begins with listening: to voices, environments, and to processes that unfold slowly or are often avoided—grief, decay, collapse. I work across sound, writing and installation, allowing each medium to bleed into the others. Writing becomes score and residue; sound moves as a relational force that holds time, attention and intimacy; voice circulates in-between.
In recent years, I’ve been exploring ‘de-composition’—understood both as material decay and as a loosening of fixed forms of knowledge and subjectivity. This inquiry emerged through personal loss and has expanded toward and interwoven with ecological and collective questions: what happens when we stay with breakdown rather than rushing towards repair? What kinds of knowledge emerge through rot, disintegration and refusal? What understanding might appear from mess, ambiguity and uncertainty?
