ARTIST STATEMENT

I incorporate themes of art history, color science, and humanities into my practice by converging parts of art history, color design, social and cultural trends and ancient archeological sites through the visual and verbal clues. Intersections of these inquiries uncover experimental ideas to investigate new connections and perspectives.

ABOUT THE ARTIST

Ancient mosaics depicts movement, triggers a sense of tactility and activates participation of the viewer; same with modern color, materials and design. Integrated with art on the basis design and of abstract relationships, contemporary mixed media mosaics connects with its past and offers new insights into each other. By synthesizing different materials, and color interactions, contemporary mosaics urge the impulse of creating new stories.
