I am a visual artist based in Naarm, Melbourne. I completed a PhD degree in Computer Science across Visual Art from University of Sydney in 2014.
My practice in visualisation has focused on creating effective and aesthetically engaging visual narratives, representations and user experiences based on research across multiple disciplines in art, science and technology. My past experience includes creating 2D and 3D digital visualisations using immersive technology such as virtual reality and augmented reality for a variety of contexts.
My practice in painting is the physical and cultural extension of my digital work that explores symbolic and narrative aspects of subject matters and using them for storytelling. I primarily paint in oil, acrylic and watercolour. I take an interest broadly in portraiture, still life, and landscape that represent or is part of everyday experience.
Artist Statement
My practice as a visual artist focuses on unravelling complex information embodied in different forms, definitive or non-definitive, through tangible visual representations such as storytelling. Within my practice, I am drawn to the symbolic representations of my subject matters, which are elevated visual elements from my own life experiences, or the experience of those who are familiar to me. Through my work, I strive to engage the interplay of visual metaphor with logical reasoning, weaving narratives and symbolism that could connect with the viewers.
