Self-isolation shares a common interest with privacy and sacrifice. In my art practice, I explore the possibilities of isolation and mental instability with a result only the critiquing individual may present.

Self-devotion and self-loathing garners motifs of the everyday mundane through isolation in the attempt to present ephemerality of the mind. These thoughts are of emotional experiences of incompleteness. The issues of non-verbalisation is made clear in the empty content provided from the art works. I am interested in the absentminded physicality of my gesture where mindless drawing flows and the closed off communication I spread.

These issues and personal problems neglected creates a sense of plain adversity powered by poison where I am able to find light in from my personal experiences. 2020 has been the year where my whole practice has shifted and the only goal of my practice is to ensure the viewers and judgements of the audiences are not moved in any sense, but are confused and challenged.
