I use recurring colours, motifs, symbols, and typography, which form my visual language. I combine abstract shapes with words, vintage ephemera, human forms, and pop-culture iconography.

Although my work is personal, I aim to give the viewer entry points into my thinking so that they can piece together something they find personally meaningful. I want to make images that are aesthetically pleasing but also challenging - unusual colour pairings, images, textures, and patterns.

I begin by gathering notes, sketches, and half-realized experiments percolating subconsciously, synthesizing themes. From a central concept, I use a stream-of-consciousness approach, expressing my thoughts with immediacy as the work takes shape. Images are layered, changed, destroyed, reworked. I enjoy the flow state of the process, imagining I am a visual mixmaster or turntablist, intuitively combining divergent elements into a cohesive form. I call these “fragmented mental landscapes.”
