“They do not know their roles – yet the world does.” Each figure carries a name, but the name is not protection — it is expectation. The women are archetypes — Lady Macbeth, Desdemona, Ophelia, Viola, Beatrice — and yet they are counter-images of themselves. They speak — but often without a voice.

“Not all drama bleeds. Some stays quiet. And waits.” The names disappear, the quotes fall silent. What remains is the everyday – kitchens, animals, patches of light on skin. The drama hasn’t vanished, it has seeped into the banal. They are silent carriers of a tension that does not explode, but endures. They show that there is a role even without a costume – and that many do not find themselves in dramas, but in routines they were never written out of.

Pursuit of Happiness

Pursuit of Happiness constructs a radically stylized visual world — between mirrors and skulls, longing and surface. An aesthetic that exists somewhere between Hades and haute couture. The protagonists are icons of illusion. Staged bodies enclosed in vitrines of darkness and sheen. What they think remains their own. What they feel is reflected in light, in surfaces, in metallic skulls — never spoken. Merely suggested.
