My practice develops as social inquiries through mediums of participatory enactments, sculpture and film. Through doubting and questioning, my works are realised as an investigation of mainstream perspectives associated with nuanced facets of regional ecological coexistence between the people and the land. Driven by site-specific community led collaborations, I place my practice in the intersectional spaces between vernacularity, conceptual and documentary.

​

Apart from my personal art-making, I am a part of the artist collective - Northeast Lightbox, that facilitates exchange between regional archives and regional contemporary practices. We aim to engage regional archives as a medium for contemporary discourse. The collective aims to cultivate new audiences through exhibitions, workshops and residencies.
