Follow The Black Rabbit, STEDELIJK MUSEUM, amsterdam, 2022
Curated by Thomas Castro, my first solo show took place at the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam from June 2022 to January 2023. Follow The Black Rabbit is an invitation to enter a dreamspace, an in-between state where melancholy and celebration coexist. The work echoes the myth of Alice in Wonderland, with a political twist to reflect the challenges and aspirations of my generation.

Printed and published by Look Back And Laugh in 2021, In Memory of the Present is my first book, featuring a collection of visual essays. Based on stories I collected, the book highlights diverse personal experiences and visions that shape one's identity.
