She turns her attention to the small changes and quiet discoveries that occur in everyday life. Rather than putting what she feels into words, she gives form to it by borrowing the presence of unassuming wild plants, making the intangible visible through their modest beauty.
In her recent works, under the series titled “Songs of Objects,” she focuses on tools that have lost their purpose and now sit gathering dust in the corner of a shed. By tracing the marks and scratches carved into their surfaces, she follows the traces of human touch embedded in them over time, bringing to light the stories that reside within these objects.
