Statement

My creative practice explores the intersection between philosophical inquiry and innovative artistic expression, developing from early painterly experiments to current multimedia text-visual hybrid works.

My artistic foundation was established in school art rooms where exposure to experimental films like Koyaanisqatsi and diverse musical influences encouraged conceptual exploration alongside traditional drawing and painting. After completing my MFA with Distinction at University of the Arts, London, where my dissertation “Does Accident Remind us of Freedom” achieved exceptional recognition, I began investigating digital painterly aesthetics and text-painting techniques.

A pivotal breakthrough came during the creation of “Browser Window Sunset,” when I moved beyond conventional digital brushes to develop methods using samples of people, objects, and text. This evolution led to distinctive multimedia works including the “Control, Alt, Delete” and “Sonnets” series – narrated video pieces that blend textual elements with visual expression to explore universal themes of authority, loss, recovery, and existential concerns through contemporary and classical frameworks.

Currently, I am developing these hybrid text-visual techniques in literary territory through my experimental memoir “A Fortuitous Befalling,” which integrates philosophical narrative with visual elements to examine modern alienation and alternative ways of being. This work, informed by my ongoing studies in Creative Arts Therapy, represents a natural progression from my multimedia practice into innovative literary forms.

My practice is grounded in the belief that meaningful art emerges from the dynamic relationship between concept and aesthetics, where experimental techniques become vehicles for interpreting and transforming human experience.
