Focusing on the physical and cognitive effects of daily life, the artist deals with the common feelings that we intuitively meet as a society by associating them with social issues such as stuckness, in-betweenness, closure-opening. The artist focuses on repetitive motifs and objects that we encounter in our daily lives and abstracts these objects, which have a certain use, from their attributed purpose and proceeds by creating installations and compositions. These selected materials are usually objects that have a direct connection with the body, even if there is no direct body form in her works, a body image is formed. Surrounding the body, or the subject, and even entering into a direct dialog, like a mirror, these objects actually create a reflection.
