My work frequently harnesses chance as a creative force in order to explore our relationships with the quotidian.
Working across disciplines, I have used live animals, digital media, language and interventions to create work that encourages the audience to re-examine natural and cultural phenomena from the world around them.
Through these disparate, process-led methodologies, I aim to provide a platform for myself and the viewer to connect with universal truths related to existence and our humanity.
Featured Projects
Mortality Reminder
Mortality Reminder invites the viewer to activate a glowstick, triggering a radiance that echoes our mortality in its temporality. The glowstick will fade in a matter of hours, the knowledge of which operates as a modern momento mori motif.
A Line Made by Kneeling
The artist uses a chak-pur—a metal funnel tool used by monks to create sand Mandalas—to create his own version of Turner Prize winner Richard Long’s A Line Made by Walking.
Release
Release is a series of works inspired by the Buddhist practice of 'life release', which sees captive animals bought and released into the wild.
BITMING
BitMing is a multi-layered art project exploring the increasing digitization of daily life, ancestral worship and the value attribution of art, currency, and cultural tradition.
Banners
This series of public interventions appropriates the Chinese red and white banner (widely used to welcome guests, promote businesses and disseminate state propaganda) in order to present contemplative sentences.
YEAR OF THE RAT MASKS
A series of face mask works inspired by the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Fauna Automata: British Wild Boar
This residency project aimed to increase public awareness of the presence of wild boar in the UK, whilst re-evaluating the species as culturally relevant.
