SELECTED VISUALS
Creating from the in-between
I create cinematic images, music, and motion pieces about fractured identity, memory, performance, and transformation.
Influenced by theatre, Butoh dance, dark disco, and retro sci-fi, my work uses light, shadow, reflection, and layered composition to build worlds that feel theatrical, surreal, familiar, and emotionally charged.
I use generative AI as an intentional collaborator, working in the friction between human direction and machine interpretation.
The work carries an underlying sense of release, ritual, rupture, joy, grief, and transformation unfolding in nonlinear time.
Generative AI gives me a responsive, iterative way to externalize nonlinear thought, memory, emotion, and association...
...making meaning visible before I can fully explain it.
ARTIST STATEMENT
Seeing what was always there
For much of my life, I have struggled to translate a vivid internal world into something that other people could understand without diminishing or distorting what was there.
My childhood impatience got the best of me, and my creative attempts at using traditional mediums - drawing, painting, etc. - always led to frustration.
Theatre was the first medium that partly closed that distance.
Studying theatre in undergrad, directing and performing consistently until five years ago, gave me a home to build meaning through collaboration, movement, sound, space, and performance.
Generative AI gives me a responsive, iterative way to externalize nonlinear thought, memory, emotion, and association, making meaning visible before I can fully explain it.
My work returns to fractured identity, doubled selves, transformation, grief, release, and the unstable space between recognition and estrangement.
I want the work to hold multiple emotional states at once without fully resolving or explaining them, leaving room for viewers to bring their own memories, associations, and emotional logic.
"It is an image that invites empathy, but also skepticism, a mirror ball of meaning that reflects back not just light, but the fractured soul of modern life."
