Artist Statement

Consumed by the white noise of technology, social media, networks, endless streams of data, we exist in a constant state of flux between the virtual and the real. Through experimental and new media, I create immersive experiences that examine our evolving relationship to the digital realm and its quiet occupation of our inner lives.

I use the human figure as a vessel into the psychological: a site where unfiltered information imprints itself onto the mind and reflects back at the observer. These figures exist as hybrids; flesh interwoven with distorted digital cod, caught in a slow dissolution into constructed personas. What appears outwardly as visual distortion mirrors an internal state: a mind under pressure, fragmented by corruption, excess, and saturation.

By juxtaposing image and sound, my work employs frequencies, drones, and interference to generate a dissonant atmosphere. Immersive media becomes a space not only to confront information overload, but to inhabit it and linger within the noise long enough to uncover moments of stillness. Within chaos, I search for quiet.

Over time, my practice has shifted. What once leaned toward anxiety and overwhelm has gradually moved toward acceptance and integration. Rather than resisting the digital, I now ask how we coexist with it daily: how identity, perception, and presence are reshaped within this landscape, and how we might remain human while continuously dissolving and reforming within it.
