My creative research is centered around answering fundamental questions such as "Who am I?", "Why do I exist?", "What is my main purpose?", "Who are my ancestors?", and "Where am I going?". I believe that a person's worldview and understanding of the world are largely shaped by external sources, particularly the media and education. If a person can clearly answer these questions for themselves, they become less susceptible to manipulation. It is the first step towards taking responsibility for one's own life and creating a conscious society.

​

My goal as an artist is to offer alternative perspectives on reality that I have discovered through my research and to encourage people to question their own beliefs and assumptions about the world. By answering these questions for myself through deep introspection and observation of society, I communicate my understanding of the world through my artwork.
