Metabolic Fictions 

A sculptural installation that explores the complex entanglements between human activity and the Earth. By transforming discarded materials from daily life into hybrid forms, I invite reflection on our environmental impact and the possibilities for change and regeneration.

My work navigates the dualities of destruction and adaptation, stagnation and resilience, decay and rebirth. I use materials such as cardboard packaging, plastic, and photographic textures to create speculative beings—creatures that inhabit an imaginary world where hybrid forms emerge unpredictably from the residue of human life.

In parallel, I use compost made from my own kitchen scraps to build small-scale sculptural forms that act as quiet counterpoints to the larger works. These earthly structures embody resilience, regeneration, and the power of collective effort. Inspired by natural systems and communal labor, they reflect my belief that even small actions hold the potential for transformation.

These sculptures are more than artifacts of waste—they are part of an ongoing process of change. By blending organic and synthetic elements, personal and planetary references, Metabolic Fictions imagines alternative futures shaped by entanglement, care, and metabolic thinking.
