Synopsis:


       I came across the word “postbiological” man from the graphic novel “Transmetropolitan” (Vertigo Comics) in the early 1990’s when social media and the internet was barely in existence. It was an idea that one’s consciousness (the soul) can be transferred into a matrix of computer servers- thus achieving “immortality”. Nowadays, it is a common phenomenon that everyone in the world could upload their profile and their “essence” into Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc. Is this the way to our own immortality, a pixelated paradise?

Everything in art has already been invented except the resonance of one's being in it. Art explores the depths of our humanity and emotions. It is a biological essence that makes us understand our physical and inner universe. My concepts about art creation are interlaced between my background in mixed media art and biological science. Drawing influences from the likes Henrik Drescher, Dave McKean, Ray Johnson, Diane Fenster, Robert Rauschenberg, and Mario Schifano, my work explores the synthesis of fractured images and experimental compositions of abstract textures and graphic interpretations of unexplored narratives.
