I am a media artist and musician based in Berlin. My practice explores how hyper-ambience shapes our perception of the world and how natural territories can be translated into embodied experience. Through live performances, installations, and workshops, I approach listening as an active practice, combining voice, field recordings, found-object instrumentation, and electronics.


I develop projects in close relation to specific places and contexts. Recent works include a collaboration with Mark Bain, as well as a project with u2203 studio and ecologist Anna Kuzemko examining natural territories affected by the full-scale invasion of Ukraine.


My work has been presented at Conflux Festival, Dampfzentrale, Kantine am Berghain, and ∄ (Kyiv’s K41), among others. I was part of the SHAPE+ catalogue 2024–25. My music has been released on Standard Deviation and Flaming Pines.


Alongside my artistic practice, I initiated and led collective formats. I founded Sound→box and the Found Object Residency, workshops dedicated to building unconventional instruments and sound objects. In my electroacoustic improvisation workshops, participants work in small groups to create shared sonic environments.
