Interdisciplinary artist working across movement, immersive environments, and AI.
Ten years ago, a dance class changed my life. Through years of training, I experienced firsthand how the body and mind could transform together. This experience became the foundation of my practice, which explores how movement, perception, emotion, and technology shape the way we experience ourselves and the world around us.
Based in Lisbon, Portugal.
A DECADE OF TRANSFORMATION
“Whale unites our psyche to the great oceanic being.
You will emerge transfigured.”

Arts writer and producer
FEATURED WORKS
Buddhaverse began as an attempt to build the world I wished existed. Spanning physical installation, digital environments, and material experimentation, it explores how immersive spaces can shape emotional experience and collective imagination.
Over the past decade, I have explored identity as a process of continual becoming through dance, immersive installation, video, AI, and multisensory environments. What started as a personal search for transformation evolved into an artistic practice investigating the relationship between the body, perception, memory, and identity.
I became fascinated by neuroplasticity and the ways repeated experience can reshape both body and mind. My work translates these questions into expressions that invite viewers to reflect on transformation, emotional experience, and the shifting nature of selfhood.
Drawing from neuroscience, Tibetan Buddhist philosophy, immersive technologies, and lived experience, I create works that exist between physical and digital worlds, between perception and imagination, and between who we are and who we are becoming.

In Brain, I trained AI on my own video archive and began working with it as a kind of second brain. The project explores what happens when memory, identity, and visual language are reflected back through another form of intelligence.

Created during a period when my internal world felt submerged in darkness, Whale transforms an emotional landscape into an immersive environment of sound, vibration, and total darkness.
Movement explores embodied neuroplasticity through dance and digital media. Working with improvisation, I investigate how different movement languages influence perception and image-making: ballet often produces symmetrical, structured forms, while contemporary movement generates more fluid, unpredictable visual landscapes.
I am currently developing a new performance work exploring transformation, memory, and the instability of selfhood through movement, improvisation, and randomized audiovisual systems.
