In her creative process, the artist works with the line as a constantly evolving element a guiding thread that gives rise to unexpected forms and figures. Through a dynamic play of construction and rupture, these emerging configurations become points of departure for new expressive explorations.

Her practice is, at its core, an exercise in symbolic transformation, where each stroke is a step into the unknown a continuous reinvention that reflects a pursuit of growth and fluidity within her artistic language.

For the ENNETO project, this exploration of the line gave rise to forms that evoke the story of the Legend of the Koi Fish and the Dragon Gate. The artist found a parallel between this tale and her own process: just as the koi swims upstream against the current to transform into a dragon, her work becomes an act of resistance and metamorphosis. The chosen forms suggested this connection, allowing her to draw on the symbolism of the koi to deepen the conceptual layers of the exhibition.

Thus, her work becomes a visual representation of change, persistence, and the possibility of reaching a new identity through art.
