Exploring the temporal qualities of repetition and difference, my practice engages with memory, movement, rhythm, time, and identity. I investigate how time is experienced and measured beyond technological systems. By elevating the ordinary into the extraordinary, my work invites a reconsideration of everyday perception. Repetition becomes both method and subject, revealing subtle shifts and rhythms while reflecting the cyclical nature of human experience.
