My work begins where the whole history of images collapses. In an age of deepfakes and flawless hyper-realistic AI generations, resemblance has lost its authority. The more real something appears, the less we trust it.
I search for what cannot be easily manufactured: a state of being – presence, transition, rupture, survival, becoming, tension. These are not portraits, but concentrated human conditions. They invite recognition at a subconscious level, where feeling precedes interpretation.
I borrow the language of the machine: compilation, layering, decomposition, dislocation, algorithmic assembly to construct internally coherent, archetypal forms.
This is the paradox I inhabit: to use the grammar of the algorithmic image in order to restore human credibility.
