ARTIST STATEMENT
My work started as a conversation—first with myself, then with the world, and now with technology. I began painting to push back against the noise: the endless stream of opinions that flood our screens, shaping how we see everything, even art itself. I wanted to find quiet inside all that chaos—to make something that asks people to pause, to feel, before reacting.
But over time, I realized that the noise wasn’t going anywhere. So instead of fighting it, I decided to talk back. That’s where artificial intelligence entered my process. I began using it as a creative collaborator—a modern-day comic partner. The dialogue between human and machine, between my instinct and the algorithm’s logic, became part of the story itself. Together, AI and I shape visual ideas, refine concepts, and experiment until a final image emerges. It feels like a new form of comics: an ongoing exchange between thought, emotion, and code.
I use every tool available—AI, digital sketching, editing programs, photography, and traditional paint. I don’t see boundaries between them; they all feed into the same language. But no matter how advanced the technology becomes, there’s still a beautiful margin of error—the human touch that slips through. A slightly crooked line, a color that bleeds too far, a layer that dries unevenly. I love that. It’s proof that emotion still matters more than perfection.
Pop Art’s bright colors, bold outlines, and talk bubbles are my vocabulary. I often build real 3D talk bubbles that physically block parts of my paintings—symbols of how constant commentary can obscure genuine experience. They turn the act of viewing itself into a metaphor: how much can we really see when we’re surrounded by so much noise?
At its core, my art is a commentary on social commentary. I’m interested in how opinion culture shapes not just what we see, but how we respond. Every reaction, every critique, every post becomes part of an endless feedback loop. My work holds up a mirror to that cycle—sometimes playful, sometimes critical—and asks what happens when we stop to observe the observers. It’s about awareness, reflection, and reclaiming space for feeling before analysis.
My pieces live in that tension between control and chaos, machine precision and human impulse. In the end, my work is both analog and digital, both human and machine. It lives in that space where technology meets touch, where meaning lingers between what’s said and what’s felt. I want my art to create a pause—to make people look again, feel again, and maybe, for a moment, listen through the noise.
