In his visual work, he explores how identity, self-consciousness, and perception are shaped—and reshaped—across time and context through the lens of philosophy. His practice is rooted in deep theoretical inquiry and acts as a dialogue on the shifting boundaries of personhood.

Beyond the studio, he works with independent galleries, artist-run spaces, and institutional settings to craft exhibitions and curatorial essays that foreground context, theory, and the lived experience of making.
