Collaborative Projects and Residencies
based on our mutual interests such as identity, memory, communication, attachment, trauma, health, and the human body.
ID* (Invisible Disability) - ID being is an art project supported by I-Portunus celebrating the diversity of the human body. The project aims to explore the invisible aspects of certain disabilities and bring them out in visible form as fashionable, wearable art objects which highlight the beauty of each human being and its uniqueness.
These objects are odes in visual form, rendering the invisible visible, bringing to light the inner world and reminding us to cherish our bodies and experiences.

Hatton Gallery, Newcastle, 2016
Performance and installation collaborative project with Vena Naskrecka, “Re-transform” is a result of our mutual interest in memory, attachment, childhood trauma, and human body.
A layering of references alluding to Romanian cultural heritage and my own memories, the immersive installation is a journey out of time, through memory. But it is a memory re-imagined, re-remembered, and re-manufactured. It is about past traditions which have become increasingly alien, but not forgotten.
Reactivating Central Poznan, Poznan, Poland, Sept 2015 Collaborative video work with artist Vena Naskrecka, created during our residency in the city of Poznan, as part of the conference ‘Paradox’, inspired by the city’s history and contradictory changes.
