Installation view of the sculptural vitrine 'Making of a ____' and the cyanotype series 'Configurations & Coding' on the wall behind. The two works are conceptually linked and explore how we comprehend and question beings that defy taxonomic categorization.

The sculptural work Making of a ____ features the blue-boned skeletal remnants of an unknowable being on display. These bone-like porcelain pieces are organized in a logical progression of morphologies, mimicking the austere configurations seen in forensic anthropology, with occasional vignettes suggesting how the pieces might fit together.
