About

I am a freelance artist, performer, and creative facilitator with over 15 years of experience in drawing, painting, sculpture, clay work, set/scene creation, installation, and performance. I enjoy guiding participatory artistic projects, leading workshops, curating exhibitions, and developing experiences that connect people with art. I combine artistic practice with event conception, moderation, and public speaking to translate complex ideas into engaging, accessible moments.

I am passionate about sustainability, innovation, and exploring the intersection of art, technology, and societal development. I mentor emerging artists, build networks across galleries and venues in Europe, and continuously seek collaborative ways to make art with and for diverse audiences.
