My practice explores the intersections of technology, behavior, and perception. Drawing on a dual background in engineering and art, I create conceptual mixed-media work that provoke reflection on how technology reshapes human experience. My first series of kinetic sculptures are deliberately slow, almost planetary in nature. This creates a purposeful tension with the viewer so they may consider the depth of their own attention.
