In my works, the essential formal aspects are linked to my professional experiences as a set designer, costume designer and interior designer. My works have a formal, technical and conceptual relationship with contemporary issues of craft and textile art through their unique hand-working technique and their treatment of the artisanal processes of traditional embroidery and stitch patterns . By transferring embroidery to paper, I transcend the traditional boundaries of my textile art works. Using the thread as a line and a pencil, I explore its aesthetic potential on paper. Coming from architecture and applied arts, paper is for me an elementary medium of meaning: retrospective and archival as a cultural, artistic and scientific mediator, transporting the future as a miniature support for ideas and visions.
In terms of content, I deal with locations. My embroideries contain drawn topographical and urban data and sections of plans, as well as fragments of photos and poems, like the Life Time Documentary principle of the smartphone – photo. Whether portraits or still lifes, everything is visually linked to data and sources, such as time and place data, written sources, reference people or assigned objects.
