"Design as a practice is (and should be) humanitarian. It is the duty of the designer, whoever they may be, and whatever tools they find at their hands, to use their skills for the better of humanity. Our toolboxes are infinite and undefined. Our peers are just as vital as our tools. We should be humans first, communicators second, both with love, patience, care, and kindness."
"Throughout this body of work, I am exploring domestic interiors and the landscape in response to a new relationship with the everyday that emerged due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In doing so, I am capturing subjects that are ubiquitous and personal as I investigate fleeting aspects of everyday life that can be difficult to see and appreciate.
"Moving imagery can be an art. The imagery reflects my visual activities, and the relationship between imagination and visual activities produces a multi-layered world of symbolism. The shape and color represent symbols of abstraction and transformation.
I make movements with small objects and liquid around me. I capture frame-by-frame images with a DSLR camera and a digital microscope. You can taste the rhythm and beat of shape and color in movements."
