His exploration in ideologies of gender such as queer identity and sexuality carries the contemporary language of visual arts and intimacy of queer spaces and atmosphere. Throughout its multiplicities, his work reflects the condition of queer-personification, questioning the intersections of identity, sexuality and body inhabitation.
His creative practice bases on an investigation of Identity, especially gender and sexuality, through multidisciplinary approaches. Drawing from his experience as a peculiar individual, his work is motivated by an existential need to comprehend and articulate his thoughts and to associate with others. He will likely make work that works with closeness and empowers understanding, accepting, and basic discussions about identity and contemporary societal movement. As he seek after these points, he persistently explore living unaffectedly and how visual portrayal, especially drawing, creative mind and past awful experiences assumes an incredible part in that art process.
