My practice is rooted in experiential, post-contemporary art, spanning luminescent painting, kinetic sculpture, sculptural relief, and immersive light environments. Using fluorescent and phosphorescent media, ultraviolet light, motion, and afterglow, I create time-based works that transform across multiple visual states. Rather than existing as a fixed image, each work unfolds through changing light, color, depth, and darkness—inviting the viewer into an active experience where perception evolves over time.

Geometry serves as the ordering logic of these works. Rather than symbolic mysticism, I approach geometry as a formal and structural inquiry—proportion, symmetry, and quasicrystalline patterning—to generate fields that feel both precise and alive. The goal is not illustration but embodied attention: to stage conditions in which looking becomes an experience of presence.

Motion—especially rotation and spin—anchors the kinetic pieces. Their cycles echo natural rhythms and remind us that perception is temporal: form emerges, dissolves, and reconfigures. The afterglow of phosphorescent layers extends this temporality, allowing images to unfold in darkness and register memory as light.

I aspire to build environments where these elements converge. The ongoing Aliume Temple Project envisions a permanent light environment that integrates painting, sculpture, and kinetic systems with architectural space—an interior calibrated for contemplation, research, and public encounter. In this sense, experience is the work: light organizes space; space organizes attention; attention opens meaning.

Light is not merely my subject—it is the material through which I think. By aligning material innovation with rigorous form, I aim to expand how art is seen, felt, and understood across spectrum, motion, and time."
