Creative Practice
I work across documentary, video art, interactive installation, and sequential art, often combining these forms in hybrid environments.
Much of my current practice builds civic infrastructures: platforms and systems co-designed with communities that act as shared tools and experiments in political imagination. Over the past decade, I have helped design and maintain information systems and trans-local networks that make visible how cultural and political power circulates. I treat these infrastructures not just as utilities but as expressive forms in themselves.
My recent projects track the politics of cultural governance and time. I ask how cultural institutions organize participation, and how communities experience the past, present, and future. This interest has led me to create sequential art works that stretch narrative across multiple planes, testing the elasticity of storytelling as a political form.
Using research, documentary methods, and participatory workshops, I build installations and civic platforms where people can assemble their own timelines, data, and imaginaries. These works do not simply illustrate existing systems; they prototype alternatives—spaces that operate both as functional tools and as artworks. In doing so, they invite publics to reflect, intervene, and envision different cultural futures together.
