About

I am a sculptor and alchemist of form, whose practice resides in the transmutation of matter into symbol, fusing the tangible with the occult. My work is a ritual of construction and destruction, where each piece becomes a sigil etched into the structure of reality. Initiated in the arts of sculpture, I seek to give body to the invisible and establish new symbolic orders in primordial chaos.

My artistic journey spans various disciplines including sculpture, illustration, and costume creation for theatre. I engage deeply with artistic residencies and international exhibitions, continuing to explore the intersections of materiality, symbolism, and ritual in my craft.
