"Art for me personally is a medium to think and to share our critical thinking and to deliver messages, in the form of visual aesthetic.
Recently my works, focus on women issues,  feminism and domestic sphere, where I execute in a range of media such as ceramics, mix-media installation, performance, and printmaking."
