about
THE EXHIBIT:
As an interior designer and textile artist, I am fascinated by the transformative power of textiles in shaping the ambiance and functionality of interior spaces. Through my work, I seek to harness the emotional and sensory potential of textiles to craft environments that nurture, inspire, and connect us.
By combining traditional craftsmanship with modern materials and techniques, I create bespoke textiles that not only adorn spaces but also tell stories, evoke emotions, and foster a sense of community. My designs weave together color, texture, and pattern to create immersive experiences that engage the senses and elevate the human spirit.

In my current body of work, I am exploring the intersection of textiles and interior design, pushing the boundaries of how fabrics can be used to define, divide, and energize spaces. Through experimentation and innovation, I aim to unlock the full potential of textiles as a medium for interior design, creating environments that are at once beautiful, functional, and deeply meaningful.
