Vague Reporter

My inspiration comes from observing how contemporary society is in an accelerating process of moving from real life to symbolic representations of life. I make use of mixed elements of communication media as art materials, even as those become increasingly immaterial. In this new reality I do not see many practical distinctions between word, sound, color, and shape. All are equally sanctioned weapons on the contemporary battleground of meaning. I make art out of the elements we now make life with, which is why in my work you may see the news, the ads, the symbols. You may see verses rushing through crowded spaces. You may hear the city as an open opera of homeless words and notice wordless faces. From physical to digital and back. I investigate and report. The vagueness of it all, depicted as faithfully as I can.
