The seemingly grotesque elements in my sculptures are intended to be a form of resistance, refusing to sanitize the dialogue of violence and oppression that women and non-human animals face. Each work is a blatant confrontation, encouraging viewers to realize the harsh realities that persist in our society. This visceral quality of the work aims to be deliberately unsettling, forcing individuals to engage with the discomfort that arises when we acknowledge the cruelty and injustice that underpins our everyday existence. My interdisciplinary approach allows me to draw connections between the seemingly disparate experiences of women and non-human animals, challenging the oppressive systems that perpetuate their suffering. Through my work, I hope to foster dialogue and influence viewers to question their passive roles within these systems.
