Locked Groove

In a constant search for a possibility to translate my ideas into tangible objects, I found in glass a catalyst for my creative process. The material resonates with a need for me to quickly translate ideas from a thought, to a physical item. The more I utilize glass as a sketching method, the more the material allows me to have an intense and rapidly productive workflow. 

While exploring traditional techniques, I attempt to construct a contemporary visual language that resonates with my aesthetic sensibility. Through my personal experiences, I have accumulated an array of influences that I synthesise in my pieces. From middle eastern visual arts and music, to the New York contemporary glass scene, I have been shaped by my surroundings. This rich multicultural education has allowed me to keep an open mind in my practice as an artist.

If I now focus on glass as a creative tool, I continuously have recourse to photography, drawing, painting, cinema and sound in my work. Both in the way I communicate it or more directly, as inherent parts of the bodies of work. A pluridisciplinary artist at heart, my process pushes me to experiment with as many mediums as I can get a hold of. 

My work is a representation of myself: an ever evolving patchwork of influence that converse through my visual explorations.
