About the artists

Her artwork uses time-based media and spatial installa tions to spotlight non-human elements, such as synthetic skin, lab-grown m ilk, and polluted plants. Through these vivid sensory details, she challen ges the tech-driven, biological control exerted over both human and non-hu man bodies. Informed by her own experiences with reproduction, hormone the rapy, and social norms, her work imagines trans-species solidarity as a fo rm of care and resistance. Ultimately, she reframes toxicity and inflammat ion as complex tools that can redefine what it means to belong, pushing pa st traditional human-centered views.
