Knitted model of human heart in red yarn, with detailed anatomical features, crafted as a crochet art piece.

I like working with my hands, creating tangible things, exploring textures and processes.

Through crochet and sewing I create objects that inspire new projects and ideas. From clothes to installations, if I am equipped with threads and fabrics I feel like anything is possible.

every scrap, old garment or lost piece of fabric is an opportunity to create something new.

INSTALLATION

The anatomical crochet heart played a central role in this installation where I threaded all the memories of my childhood home, now demolished.

The heart held the key and its strings stretched across the room, anchored to physical remnants of the house. A poem was read on repeat as the observers walked through the installation, immersing them in memory and loss.

Doll making

I love improvising and creating a space for my niece where we can explore and learn together. We created these dolls together and it was pure joy!
