My Work is made up of painted systems of lines colors and forms manipulated and arranged to encapsulate our exploration in synthetic digital systems of data. With this exploration of these systems there is a propensity in our evolutionary momentum towards flatness, anxiety, addiction, compulsion and escape. Pods or forms of protection are represented in oversaturated colors which are organized rhythmically to create perceived movement, speed or at moments stasis. The use of the pod form is to symbolize humanity at present and its movement towards insulation by the screen.
