Curiosity might not kill the cat.
This practice begins with a “what if?” Making something is a way to find out.
Rooted in sociology, visual communication, and filmmaking, I work across films, music, visual identities, and interactive instruments. Some projects begin with a defined idea; others emerge from testing an unfamiliar process.
A new way of working is a reason to make something. A clear purpose can leave room to question the expected outcome. Moving between disciplines is part of finding what an idea could become, in conversation with the material as it develops.
