Blue Studio
The Blue Studio project is a process-driven textile research initiative conducted within the context of textiles in an expanded field, addressing global water issues. It explores blue as a symbol of water—a source of life. All studio walls are covered with textiles dyed in blue shades and canvases painted in blue. The floor is covered with planks of wood painted in blue with accented pink lines. The artisanal dyeing processes include Indigo Shibori—a Japanese dyeing technique—on white cotton. This expanded textile experience involves the addition of various fibers and materials such as metal, wood, cardboard, and ceramics.
Blue Studio evolves, visually conveying concepts where disaster, beauty, and hope intersect. The project develops through emotion, artistic influence, ongoing research, and experimentation, remaining open to unexpected insights and fresh ideas.
Blue Studio invites visitors to interact with the space, which is arranged as a singular artwork. Observing from the entrance offers a curated viewing experience, while entering the studio enables interactive engagement with the environment.
“The Blue Studio” concept was inspired in part by Henri Matisse’s The Red Studio; Matisse famously remarked that he perceived all things together in red. To demonstrate his influence on my work, I constructed a three-dimensional maquette of The Red Studio, reinterpreting his work through a blue palette.

Visual Journey
Visual Journey is an ongoing project that explores life's connections and meaning through personal reflection, linking individual and collective experiences to issues such as inequality, water scarcity, violence against women, and food distribution.
The project examines how materials, such as clay and natural elements, change through both human and natural processes, highlighting transformation and disintegration. The project reflects on life challenges and joys, considering how our memories define us and connect the past to the present. It considers how personal memories, the search for beauty, peace, and reflections on life's fragility inspire growth.
The project included elements designed for audience interaction.

Maria's Bodyline
Maria's Bodyline
A life is a sequence of moments pulled from a sea of mystery. Emerging from a basket of uncounted stones—representing ancestors and the vastness of personal potential—this series of linked forms traces a journey toward the now.
Chosen for their gravity, these stones turn a spirit’s journey into a tactile record of survival. The line starts at a great-grandparents’ vase and fresh flowers, where a single stone rests: a quiet symbol of life in the womb. Here, history meets the soul.
