Statement

I study how systems change — and visualize how it feels. Structure meets surrender; the image holds the moment between them.

I’m a computational biologist and visual artist. I spent years observing living systems — how they adapt, break, and reorganize. Then I met states with no scientific terminology — only sensation. I now apply the same method to interior experience, rendering emotion as direct visual observation. Some states don’t have language yet, but they can have form.

I work at the threshold between structure and surrender. I set constraints: composition, color systems, biological references — then introduce variables that destabilize them. What emerges is the interval between plan and accident, held open long enough to witness. Some works use biological imagery because certain feelings behave like cellular processes; others dissolve into abstraction because some states resist external form.

I do what resists language but demands to be seen. The work asks you to look until pattern gives way to sensation — and to notice what it does to you right now.
