"Depth Perception" - A surreal convergence of ophthalmology and oceanography, where the vitreous humor becomes a deep-sea expanse, and visual floaters morph into drifting jellyfish. This piece blurs the boundary between biological function and imagined perception, a reminder that the eye does not simply see—it interprets, distorts, and transforms reality in ways both clinical and poetic. Inspired by a patient’s description of floaters in their vision, this artwork transforms a clinical phenomenon into an ethereal dreamscape.
"What Lies Before Her" - A body entwined with nature yet bound by a history of control—roots growing where veins should be, a gilded uterus caught between autonomy and subjugation. The intricate patterns woven into her form mirror the systemic imprints of a medical field that once denied women the right to their own bodies. The stork, an enduring symbol of imposed narratives on reproduction, tugs at the golden cage—both an emblem of fertility and a prison of expectation. This piece is a meditation on the legacy of obstetrics and gynecology, a field built on the silenced voices of those who never gave their consent, and the ongoing struggle for true bodily autonomy.
"Shell of the Soul" - A duality of form—at once an X-ray of the chest and the ancient silhouette of a turtle, a paradox of fragility and resilience. The iridescent hues pulse like metabolic activity on a PET scan, mapping the unseen energy within. Is this the shell of a creature adapting to its environment, or the delicate frame of a human body seeking shelter within itself? A meditation on survival, structure, and the echoes of life beneath the surface.
"Neuropathic Reverie" - A fragmented recollection, where memory flickers between clarity and distortion—like synapses misfiring in an aging mind. The instant camera, a hippocampus of sorts, struggles to retain what is already slipping away. The glow of scattered lights mirrors the remnants of neural connections, illuminating what is left behind in the ever-fading archive of consciousness.
