Artist Statement

As an artist and art educator, my work resides at the intersection of traditional artistic practices and contemporary digital media.

​

Recently, I have worked with developing a festive attire for Tøyen (Tøyendrakt), which is a place-rooted, hybrid celebration of identity and craft—a platform where traditional sewing meets local narratives, cultural hybridity, and community learning.

​

My primary areas of focus include portrait painting, embroidery, pinhole photography and designing cameras, 2D and 3D digital media, and the innovative use of Makerspace environments.

​

In poetry and writing, I pursue new forms of digital narratives, aiming to tell stories that resonate with the digital era.

​

With my artistic and academic research, I aim to design, test, and present new ways of teaching art through maker-centered learning.

​

My goal is to inspire a harmonious integration of art and technology, fostering an environment where educators and students can fully realize their creative potential and envision new possibilities for artistic expression.​
