Director–Editor
From the beginning of my career, I have been attracted to video art and interactive media to engage different communities, examine human characteristics and relationships. After completing my studies in filmmaking at Kingston University, London, I was selected for the first global residency of THE AND project created by The Skin Deep studio, based in New York. In 2018, I produced “This is not a feminist project”, as a fellow for the Start – Create Cultural Change program funded by Robert Bosch Stiftung. My work has been shown at national and international film and media festivals. Currently, I split my time between multimedia art projects and a creative collaboration as a director and editor.
