My work uses light, shadow, and reflection, the most basic components of visual perception, to test our collective awareness of these simple phenomena in a world collapsed by endless immersion in digital screen spaces.  The “screen time” provided by a digital device only produces illusionistic space within. It emits light, rather than absorbs it, providing only a reflection in real space. Through my use of light and its capacity to describe space, I invoke the riches in everyday life. These moments I study and represent through multiple media function as a metaphor for the complicated relationship that humans have with the concept of reality in the 21st century. As a person who was born in 1998, I was always left alone to deal with these issues, judged insignificant by older generations.  I am fascinated by how reflections feel incredibly real yet are objectively distorted at the same time. For me, this feeling is associated with how I experience space and myself as a person that lives in between the online and offline worlds. In my work, illumination and reflection overlap or distort spaces and figures– prodding the viewer’s capacity to perceive reality through site-specific installations, videos, and painting
