| My work can be briefly defined as a continuous conversation on the power of imagery in contemporary society. It is largely influenced by Philosopher Jean Baudrillard’s concepts of hyperreality and simulacra, and mostly applied to Human Rights, Social, and Theological issues. Through a variety of media, my intent is to present side-by-side two different and extreme phases of the image: images that are of the order of a sacrament, and images that are nothing more than an illusion of a reality that never existed. The final aim is to enhance viewers’ perception of the world around us, and, hopefully, bring their attention to urgent issues that remain unnoticed by many. Please visit my website for more about me and my work. I would be honored by your visit. |
