My body of work explores the idea of the interconnection between nature, urban area and human. It illustrates nature in urban areas, the contrast between nature and urban, and humans' effect on nature and the world the way we chose to build it. Initially, my work focused on highlighting nature in urban areas. As I advanced through the time, I discovered artists and art genres which made me open to a larger message. Through my exhibition, I'm aiming that the viewer meditates on the way we live and our priorities. My body of works encourages the audience to take care of its environment and of its surrounding. To do this I approach it in three-ways; first, by mixing Nature and Urbanization. Secondly I’ve included plants in my sculpture and used it as a motif for our planet/environment which we need to cherish to keep it alive. Thirdly, I’ve used photography portraying people and life in general. I’ve shown urbanization in all its forms through painting, film, photographs and sculptures. In this way the audience was left with different aspects of life, urbanization and nature to judge themselves on what we should do. My body of work encourages the audience to appreciate, take care of its environment and their surroundings.

With My work I wanted to use different materials and media. Starting with paper and concertina to sculpture and Artistic film. I think it is important to portray an Idea with different media as each individual are more tangible to be sensitive to one particular medium. I’ve also quite like the opportunity to create art under all its possible form. Through the time I realized that all the medium I’ve used were equally effective to portray my themes. They convey and complete the representation of my theme in their way and well. The sculptures are bringing the touch of nature and are really powerful to represent effectively how fragile nature is and how important it is to take care of it.
