STATEMEnTThesis will be a means of exploring a creative seduction. Thesis will be my avenue of generating unconventional pieces of work I have the desire to manifest.

METhOdOLOgYThrough collaborations with other artists as well as collaborations with different egos in myself, I will articulate thesis based on a series of photographic demonstrations, paintings, and audio and visual accompaniments. I approach thesis with the notion that I must trigger bodies of work in ac-cordance with how those egos are reacting to the outside world and what they do to survive.

AudiEncEThe audience is broad. The audience is you, me, anyone who comes across this work and are somehow affected, impressed, or disturbed by what they have seen and heard. Vague, yes. Without regard, no.

5X5: EXPLORATiOn Of EgOSFor part of the 5X5 exercise I took the opportunity to create various egos of myself in order to cre-ate different points of view on how to go about creating my thesis. Fighter, Hollywood, Scared Mor-mon, Hit Man, Voodoo.

5X5: ROOM #25 nights documented based upon the idea of movement, collaboration, units working together. Room #2: 2 = peace, The second chapter of the world, modernization and digitalization. Tangible and intangible.

fuRThER EXPLORATiOnManifest the ideas of Room #2 into a body of painted works stemming from a visceral and literal animal-like notion.

fuRThER EXPLORATiOnContinuation of Room#2 through Video and Audio construction as well as further exploration of photographic executions.

fuRThER EXPLORATiOnContinuation of Room#2 through Video and Audio construction as well as further exploration of photographic executions.

fuRThER EXPLORATiOnBeyond capturing movement already occurring, generate photographic pieces representing the intrinsic qualities of the fluctuation within collaborating forces.

fuRThER EXPLORATiOn: nEXTI have the intention of continuing to develop the painted works as well as continue with my vigor attached to photographic and video documentation. I have concentrated more on documentation the past week and would like to explore more of what the “EGOS” would do in these situations. Also, since audio creation has been presented to me I wish to explore what I can do with the presence of sound within these bodies of work. Next iteration shall be more video and audio combination and a series of painted works.
