From South Africa (Johannesburg) to the Azores (Sao Miguel) to NL (Amsterdam) to the UK (London) to Ibiza to Argentina (Buenos Aires) to The World.
My practice has been shaped by assembling the fragments of diverse cultural traditions and influences, constantly rearranging my nomadic mix.
I am currently exploring the complexities of a transcultural identity based on roots and routes; exposing ideas through the recycling of meanings and paradoxes, while revisiting roots in claims to home and belonging.
My works take on multiple transmedia forms such as video/animation, illustration/installation, writing/music.
I create works that are quite fluently accessible, yet layered enough to offer multiple meanings and accumulate new interpretations in different contexts, with the tendency towards sociopolitical undertones amalgamated with global party vibes.
P.S. > I adore collaborating :-)
