At surface, I wish to immediately make an impact, grab the viewers attention, keep it, intrigue them, educate and stimulate their senses. I seize the audience by encapsulating them in my work, connecting curiosity with imagination and enthrallment.
My current work focuses on self-reflection through the evaluation of identity; I wish to explore the workings of inner exclusivity and focus on the depiction of the body, existence and create a character of work conscious of identity and inform the viewer in the format of life. I strive to use innovate methods in my work, utilizing innovative technology to common recognisable materials.
