Relaxation is a State of Mind
February 17 - March 16, 2024

Delirium
February 17 - March 16, 2024
In presenting ten plank-like paintings for the exhibition,
the artist critiques the Western modernist trope of

boundary between sculpture and painting.
Promised Land

Everything We Don’t Know
January 13 - February 10, 2024

know of our modernist past into painterly amalgamations of
ethno-futurism and animism, magical realism and mutant
abstraction, as well as a haunting-ontological aesthetic on the
idea of man.
