Creative Portfolio
I work with materials, shapes and experimental textile processes.
My practice combines design, upcycling and visual exploration through hands-on work.
I am particularly interested in transformation and developing new forms from existing materials.
Triangular Garment
A sculptural garment built from rigid triangular forms, exploring the balance between protection and visibility through a structured, vase-like silhouette.
UPCYCLING / FASHION
This series explores upcycling as a way of rethinking materials, objects, and garments.
Each piece begins with something discarded or overlooked — an old bag, fabric, or everyday object — and transforms it into something new, expressive, and wearable.
Rather than hiding their origins, these works embrace traces of their past, combining craft, experimentation, and reconstruction.
The projects vary in scale and function, but are connected through a shared approach: giving materials a second life through design.
ANALOG IMAGE SERIES
Analog photographs exploring memory, light and materiality.
Each image reflects the unpredictability and depth of working with film.
PAINTED SURFACES
These works explore painting beyond canvas.
Objects and garments become surfaces for image, where material and illustration interact.
PRINTS / ILLUSTRATION / KONZEPTE
A collection of prints, drawings and experimental compositions exploring texture, form and visual development.
NUTCRACKER MICE
A series of handmade papier-mâché mice created as a custom project inspired by the Nutcracker story.
Each figure was developed through layering, shaping and painting, focusing on character, texture and narrative expression.
