Using an architectural structure inspired by unfinished houses, I explore ways to make the exhibition space feel like my own. This process raises questions for me: How can I feel at home here? What does ‘home’ really mean? And how does the concept of home connect to identity?
I approach the work intuitively, combining construction, color, text, and both abstract and figurative elements to shape possible personal narratives. I’m fascinated by the symbolism and storytelling potential of these elements. What emotions does color evoke? Can text have a visual impact beyond its narrative meaning? And what stories emerge from the interplay between the visual elements?
