I am an undisciplinary artist who creates projects that capture the boundaries of movement, for those that are defined by systems, so that they are transformed and displaced from stillness.

As someone who had interdisciplinary, trade-focused training in industrial design and video production, I found that it infected my former conservative notions of artmaking. It turned me into someone who tries to achieve synthesis in my practice through a hands-on approach to making, observing, and experiencing the subject matter or problems I inquire into.

I use performative acts such as commuting, recording with a smartphone, loitering, and making ice tubig as a way to take control of my concepts while considering even the materials embedded in my practice. For example, using a smartphone lets me work with an object that even the urban poor in Southeast Asia have access to for media; it also serves as a mode of photography that lets me present an immediate, unfiltered reality of the spaces I encounter.

Just like with my training, I aim for the viewers to become displaced not only with perspectives on art, but also with the relationships, or politics, within the spaces that they are inhabiting and interacting with.
