My digital collages explore the rapidly blurring lines between what we perceive as "natural" and "synthetic." At their core is an investigation into humanity's evolving relationship with the natural world - our increasing sense of alienation from it, but also our drive to belong and reintegrate ourselves within its flows.

​

I'm interested in how technological progress and climate change continuously reshape our understanding and experience of nature. I am guided by the concept of the sublime. The transcendent feeling of awe once inspired by raw and powerful natural landscapes. Now, traces of the sublime are found in the unfurling complexities of science while the natural world feels increasingly tamed and understood.

 

My collages fuse lush, organic forms with a digital creative process, forming an ambiguous aesthetic that hovers between beauty and discomfort. I invite viewers to ponder this symbiosis.
