Concentration theme:
The topic for my concentration is surreal juxtaposition. All my paintings have subjects and metaphors of their own but are unified by the fact that they share a human character interacting in a surreal setting. The latter half of my works are all done in the Japanese “super flat” style and are all illustrations of sentences scribbled onto the artwork itself. The point of it all was to reinvent events around me using personal symbols and imagined characters and in doing do I have ended up with somewhat of an iconography of my own.
