Artist Statement
My work is a fusion of traditional art forms and emerging technologies, where the boundaries between the physical and digital worlds dissolve.
My background
As a creative director and my deep roots in fine arts, I approach art as both a conceptual exploration and a journey of innovation. My creative process is shaped by my experience in design, where user-centered principles guide how I think about interaction, perception, and meaning.
My practice
I use technology to transform and translate the human experience. As a leader in immersive technologies, particularly AR/VR, I explore the ways in which digital media can alter how we perceive space, narrative, and connection.
My process
I create conceptual art by striking the delicate balance between experimentation and collaboration. I’m inspired by the intersection of art and technology, and my goal is to push the limits of what’s possible by integrating new media with traditional artistic methods.
My signature style, “digirealism,” juxtaposes the digital with the tangible, using fine art techniques to create work that mimics and appears to be digitally produced is both visually challenging and thought-provoking.
My work
I not only invite viewers to observe, but also engage—creating environments that challenge conventional notions of what art can be and how it can be experienced.
My philosophy
I believe art should be an immersive, interactive experience that sparks dialogue about the world we inhabit and the technologies we create. Through my work, I aim to redefine the relationship between art and technology, challenging both myself and my audience to imagine new ways of experiencing and understanding the world around us.
