About my artwork

I am a multi-media artist dealing with the issue of identity. Ultimately, I am interested in the performance and rehearsal of that identity.

Through my artwork, I share my personal story of clones, bright lights, backstage rehearsals, trendy clothes, beautiful clear skin, manic depression, anti-gravity, homosexuality, and celebrity. My chaotic and colorful reality is born from American pop culture, political misunderstandings, racial tension, mainstream manipulated media, religious disbeliefs, psychological disorders, and technological breakthroughs. and technological breakthroughs.

Artists I like

Bruce Nauman, Vanessa Beecroft, Adi Nes, Matthew Barney, Kara Walker, Andy Warhol, Barnett Newman, Mark Rothko, Degas, Caravaggio, Felix Gonzalez-Torres.

Tom Ford, John Galliano.
