---Photography---

Covered buildings, abandoned or under construction / conservation, are a route through the tissues of cities I have visited and live. They are remarked as urban phenomena and translated as stories. They create images that associatively refer to installations or sculptures in the urban landscape.

​

There is always an obsession to focus mainly on the forms and lines / the lights and the shadows. Architectural - structural elements stand out through the transparency of the fabric, from accidental tears that resulted from suffocating cover, stretching or from strong wind.

​

The waste of time that 'is hiding' behind the fabric but also the one that is captured in the material itself obviously tells its own stories that are captured through the lens of the camera abstractly.

​

---Cyanotype---

Part of my visual approach is the transformation of photographic images through the technique of cyanotype. The themes refer to highlighting the texture. These are captured by the exposure and action of light on paper, according to the technique.

​

In some of these works, I do also embroider by hand.

---Construction---

​

As a result of this personal research, I started a series of wall constructions using primary materials such as wood, reeds, ropes, threads, stones and plastic industrial material. A common point in these works is the structural element of the (possible) construction of a house, as a step beyond the theme and character of the photographs.

---Installation---

In February 2020, on the occasion of the presentation of my thesis, I created an environment-installation project. The work motivated people to step inside it, to slowly identify elements, to watch a video, to perceive the movement after studying the albums “Coverings I & II” with the photographs of the covered buildings.

The space of these covered buildings, it is associatively transforming into a canny/homely, perhaps even uncanny/unhomely, space that fascinates with its possible stories that are forever trapped inside it.

The installation attempts to create an artificial environment and not the representation of the real image. I create my own shelter, with the protective material that has fascinated me, without defined limits between inside and outside, wanting to talk about my own "home", to tell my own story.
