"Working the boundaries between traditional instruments, instrumental found objects, performance technique and technology, the development of alternative forms of sound generation for music composition is essential in my work. I am interested in approaching traditional instruments as cultural artifacts and inventing instrumental implementations of rudimentary objects; where the role of the musician is taken as a flexible multi-instrumentalist, and overall, a musical performer."
