My works are often comical. But they also raise unsettling questions about our place in the world and the formation and meaning of cultural identities and stereotypes. I am interested in the complexities of the human condition — our quirks and fears, our moments of loneliness and joy, our ways of moving, identifying and representing ourselves — and inspired by the child’s world of play, where reality readily gives way to, and confuses with, imagination.
