About the Work:

Actions (1996-1998)
In 1996, I initiated a series of interventions and alterations in my childhood neighborhood to explore how art could be woven into daily life while subtly creating a sense of mystery and wonder. My only rules were to rely on my imagination and the materials I had at hand. Initially, these works were anonymous actions I carried out, later evolving into poetic, descriptive texts or possible future instructions on gentle ways to transform the world.
