ABOUT
My work is about performance, cultural identity, femininity, visual pop culture and politics; often evoking elements that triggers questions about social statements and stereotypes. Currently, my major interest has been the relationship human/technology, especially the social aspects of cyber-culture: Social media, computer mediated communication, interactivity, among others.
My practice includes photography, film, performance and digital/physical installations.
