Monochrome
Monochrome brings together three works that examine the tension between order and chaos, self‑perception and societal expectation, intention and uncertainty. Across the series, stripped‑back palettes and screen‑printed surfaces become a way of distilling complex inner worlds into stark, deliberate forms. Each piece uses monochrome not as an aesthetic limitation but as a conceptual tool — a way of revealing structure, exposing contradiction, and foregrounding the psychological and philosophical questions at the heart of the work.
Together, these works form a meditation on agency, identity, and the frameworks — personal, cultural, and structural — that govern our lives. Monochrome uses reduction to reveal complexity, inviting viewers to look beyond surface simplicity and engage with the layered, often contradictory forces that shape human experience.
NO MAN
In No Man, a reimagined Vitruvian figure becomes a site of personal and cultural interrogation. The disrupted ideal, the sensory markers of neurodivergence, and the symbolic objects orbiting the body all challenge inherited notions of perfection, masculinity, and self‑control. The work reframes classical geometry as a space for vulnerability and self‑definition.
THE ABSURD STRUGGLE
The Absurd Struggle shifts inward, depicting the friction between instinct and discipline. The dual self — one primal, one striving for control — embodies the absurdist condition of pushing against forces both internal and systemic. Through this lens, everyday compulsions become reflections of broader societal pressures, revealing how resilience is forged in the midst of contradiction.
WHAT ARE THE CHANCES?
In What are the chances?, the focus turns to the systems that shape perception. A sequence of fixed coin tosses blurs the boundary between randomness and design, prompting viewers to question how much of life’s uncertainty is genuine and how much is constructed. The triptych format introduces a temporal dimension, inviting contemplation of past, present, and the open-ended future.
