Following an instinctive process to create images, I focus on the limits of perception (the visible) and the creation of constructed identity. As humans, we have the ability to retain images. Memory is the perceptual tool with which we analyse, recreate and understand realities. Expression, on the other hand, is the tool I use to explore the boundaries between the abstract and the figurative to evoke conversations.
The multidisciplinary scope allows to process and highlight these ideas outside of traditional mediums – experimental forms of image making, media altering, storytelling etc – to create parallel scenarios (and therefore liminal realities) that clash in unexpected ways for the spectator. By acknowledging the lack of control in every spectator’s perception, one might as well generate a visual overload that recirculates the virtual or physical spaces they inhabit. I focus on the clash of multiple simultaneous conversations and contexts, using different, often unmixed media.
“What happens when the process is shown and not hidden?, Am I hungry or sad?, How can I create something meaningful without feeling powerless or ineffectual?”. These seemingly unrelated questions constantly arise in a context where emotion and expression can’t be judged, and therefore neglected. Artists like Matt Lambert, Carlos Darder, Evelyn Bencicova, José Tola, Es Devlin, Alex Stoddard and many more keep inspiring me to create immersive universes. A unique experience.
