THE BLOG

Through this blog, I aim to delve into the conceptual underpinnings of my work, as well as the various techniques and materials I employ in my creation process. A synthesis of traditional and digital mediums characterizes my current work, and I am constantly seeking to push the boundaries of what is possible through the use of both. I will discuss various artistic concepts, such as the use of collage, bricolage, the role of the digital in contemporary art, and the concept of the “post-medium condition”. I will also share the research and inspirations behind my works: mathematical formulas, sacred geometry, religion, the occult, mystery Babylon, and journal entries. My hope is that this blog will serve not only as an insight into my artistic practice, but also as a source of inspiration and encouragement for fellow artists and followers of my work.
