My work explores the nature of the world through both a holistic and atomistic lens, probing at the complexity and wonder of it all. The conclusion that reality is nigh beyond comprehension by any one individual is thematic to everything, and a sense of grandiosity as well as humility pervades the imagery as well. Drawing from influences in the psychedelic revolutions of the mid-1960’s to mid-1970’s and today, familiar concepts from both movements are expressed with a mindset more grounded in the sciences than in spirituality or esoteric occult knowledge. I have always been interested in understanding the properties of the world we live in; however, instead of expressing these properties in their native language, mathematics, I chose over time to translate the strange and complex aspects of the world through a language anybody can understand: art.
