Leda (2015)
Rooted in the rich tradition of the Viennese Secession, my artistic exploration delves into the complex interplay between explicit and implicit artistic expression. Drawing inspiration from diverse disciplines such as neuroscience, bodily modification, and contemporary mythology, my practice emerges as a dynamic investigation of human emotion and cognition.
Utilizing a diverse array of mediums including animation, short film, and occasional stills, I craft narratives that oscillate between mythological symbolism and abstract contemplation. Through meticulous attention to line, texture, and narrative structure, I aim to reveal the multifaceted beauty inherent in life's complexities, often juxtaposing themes of romance and violence to provoke thought and reflection.
Guided by a fascination with neuroscience, I seek to engage viewers on both cognitive and emotional levels, employing sensory stimuli to evoke visceral responses. By incorporating elements of bodily modification, I invite contemplation on themes of identity and transformation, while drawing upon contemporary mythology to contextualize the evolving nature of human experience.
In essence, my work serves as a catalyst for intellectual exploration and dialogue, inviting viewers to reflect on the intricate tapestry of human emotions and the dynamic relationship between art and perception. Through a thoughtful integration of mediums and concepts, I endeavor to provoke introspection and discourse that transcends traditional artistic boundaries.
