In a world shaped by social media, it is the medium itself that pushes us to share only a fragment of who we are—a carefully curated representation feeding into a black-and-white narrative that influences society’s view of identity. Over time, these partial narratives feed back into our own self-perception, confusing or eclipsing our richer, more nuanced and conflicting selves.

In Narrow Identities, vibrant ceramic sculptures symbolize the true breadth of our personality and experiences, while black-and-white crochet elements embody the fragile, woven personas we present online. By juxtaposing these materials, the series highlights the tension between our authentic, multifaceted nature and the diluted images we cultivate and internalise in digital spaces.

As we move away from our more authentic, less idealised selves, our ‘narrow identities’ sustain the values of modern life, influencing how we see ourselves and ultimately shaping the ways society comes together.
