I am an interdisciplinary artist who explores the roles of how individual identity and self-concept intersect from an individual unit to a collective community, emphasizing in socio-political concepts, languages, and color theories. I examine and deconstruct traditional ideas and contemporary ideologies from multiple perspectives as a way to sift through information via my intuitions. By taking in a large amount of relevant and irrelevant information from both research and material experimentation, I recognize, assemble, and synthesize patterns from selectively process specific external data with introspection. I incorporate this process to reimagine possible and impossible ways to further filter through unorganized data into holistic images, and images into compartmentalized frameworks, and frameworks into systematic schemas. By constantly and consistently adopting this process as an intrinsic learning mechanism as a way of life, my continuous research, observation, and experimentation feed me convergent compilations of specific impressions that shape and streamline my art practice.  

I view the mobilization of different media and materials as a means to an end, similar to morphemes and phonemes in syntax, or signifieds and signifiers in semiotics. Through repeated testing, experimentation, and development in ideas and concepts, my analysis and understanding of the subjects will moreover capitalize and centralize the diversity and definition of my self-expression. As the linguistic context of spoken words and the tone of voice that orchestrate the words, the semantic interpretation of artworks elevates aesthetics in an intuitive, complimentary manner. The ability to construct meaning and assume purpose in a universe I perceive as innately absurd is the difference between existence and non-existence, sanity and despair, teleopathy and nihilism. Therefore, I take careful considerations in how specific visual and non-visual languages operate in the broad vision of my work. I continue to facilitate visual cues in my work by deploying both subtle satire and humor as a form of indirect, ambiguous communication in order to engage with the audience and to dismantle a singular interpretation of the work. Thus, allowing the work to multiply in potential magnitudes and dimensions, resulting in the viewers to develop impressions from the work itself and from where their perceived position in the universe.

By offering more than the external representation and formal elements of the work, aesthetics perform as an expanding collection of lived experiences, subjective senses, and inexpressible impressions. Aesthetics serves as a peripheral regimen that commands the conceptual rigor of the images, creating a vital interplay with the ideas employed in the work. A self-defined framework that promotes its purpose as an illogical, rigid composition, transmuting and transforming into unstable meanings and sense-making. Aesthetics maintain its visual relevance to the origin of the image by establishing a fixed spatial relation. As a result, the aesthetics of the artist and the viewers connect through the work itself, instituting a lasting impact on the viewers by exposing them to a different set of politics, imageries, and ideas.

The mode of presentation functions as one of the most important aspects of my work, a portal that unravels the subjective groundwork of my practice. As I believe that the process of the display is the binding agent that maps out my process as an artist, the conceptual intent and execution of the project as well as the externalization of my ideologies. The end product of display yields an absolute, definitive stillness incapable of any physical change, mostly. Yet, to most viewers foreign to my work, the physical manifestation of my work construes as a starting point of the subconscious and conscious perception, together with the interpretation of the piece itself. Thus, assembling a visual, linguistic narrative that intimately represents more than the sum of the parts, translating in both a literal and nonliteral fashion.
