My creative approach centres on providing spaces for contemplation and remembrance. Since my experience of loss, my photographic and curatorial practice has touched upon grief, personal histories and the rituals that shape our expressions of mourning. I seek to engage viewers in reflecting on how we commemorate the deceased and perform farewell rites.
In my scenographic process, spatial and material choices are intentional, guiding the audience toward a meditative experience where the boundary between the personal and the universal blurs. Symbolic elements such as white textiles, candles, floral displays and coffins construct intimate settings that invite both emotional and philosophical responses.
Because of these visual references, my project titles remain poetic rather than descriptive, offering clues that encourage deeper engagement. For example, The Wake (2020–22) is a constellation of documentary and performance photographs following a family loss, providing a window into personal grief.
The camera plays a dual role in my work - as both a recording device and a tool for framing perspective. Whether in photographic or curatorial projects, the lens captures an ephemeral presence, one that is always overshadowed by its impending absence. More recently, I have become interested in the curatorial act as a form of performance - shaping the viewer’s journey not only through scenography but through my lens as well. The funerary context that I opened a few years ago is embedded at the core of my practice, continuing to inform the projects I create, and influences the collaborations with artists whose work engages with central themes of my practice : family, death and ritual
