Art stands to truth as a jester stands to the powers-that-be: unaccountable.
My site-specific arrangements of double-edged views and glowing ideas may manifest as parody, an avatar of an avatar, or a candy shop from outer space – but there's a serious underlying ambition: to achieve ontological freedom through creative interaction with the unknown.
Previously trained as a philosopher, my work shows all the elements of a visual thought experiment. I like debate and transition, even if it's uncomfortable, and this is best provoked in my laboratory-like studio. There, I'm uncovering the potential of art as an oracle: a method to ask the right questions and to posit exorbitant visual and experiential theories.
Drawing from an ever-expanding database of handmade, self-fabricated, and fetishized artifacts, I'm building a four-dimensional constellation of question and answer that tumbles over the edge of reason.
