My work explores the emotional and symbolic relationship between food, the human body, and visual culture. Through photography, art direction, and design, I create staged worlds where food becomes more than sustenance—it transforms into a narrative device, a sculptural object, and a vessel for fantasy, memory, and introspection. My creative process is rooted in curiosity and play, often merging elements of product design, gastronomy, and visual arts to craft scenes that are both striking and intriguing. I use my practice to question how we consume, desire, and ritualise food, inviting viewers to explore its deeper emotional and cultural meanings.
