Fe. Works 2025
 

My work explores the overlooked beauty and symbolism found within everyday objects—specifically, the domestic iron. Drawing inspiration from its shape, function, and associations with care, labor, and ritual, I create digital prints that transform this familiar tool into something unexpected and vibrant.

Each piece reimagines the iron as a source of growth and transformation. Large, colorful abstract flowers and surreal insect forms emerge from its outline, suggesting themes of metamorphosis, domesticity, and the hidden life within routine. The repetition and layering in my compositions mirror the cyclical nature of household work, while the bright, bold color palette disrupts the monotony, offering a sense of play and rebellion.
