My work navigates the absurd and often contradictory ways contemporary culture both seeks—and obscures—the divine. In an age where spiritual yearning is commodified, politicized, and memeified, I use satire as a lens to critique and celebrate our relentless impulse toward transcendence.

Through densely layered compositions and theatrical narratives, I stage collisions between sacred symbols and pop-cultural debris—where gods wear fast fashion, prophets speak in hashtags, and relics glow under LED light. Drawing from traditions as disparate as religious iconography and internet ephemera, I fuse them into scenes where the sublime and the ridiculous share the same stage.

I offer no dogma, only questions: What does it mean to search for the sacred in a world that prizes irony over awe? Can laughter be a form of prayer? These visual parables unravel the rituals of modern belief—spiritual, consumerist, digital—holding up a mirror to the ways we perform, parody, and pursue the divine.
