Just received an email a few days ago from the Blue Koi Gallery. One of the three works that I've submitted, "Snooze," has made it to Finalist.

This will be my fourth straight placement with this gallery. The online exhibition, Emotion & Expressions, will be released on their site later this month.

Stay tuned!

On Instagram, in a collaboration post with The Holy Art Gallery, Milk Circuit has hit 4,000 views (and still climbing). Thanks to the gallery for the opportunity.

This piece will be featured in the Tokyo Art on Loop in October.

Hellspawn (Self Portrait) High Poly Version

Hellspawn comes from a place most people are too scared to admit exists. I burned society’s bullshit book on how to live, how to behave, how to smile, and how to pretend any of this is worth worshipping. I do not care for the script. I do not care for the norms. And I sure as hell do not care about performing a life that never felt honest to me in the first place.

This piece is about a darker truth: I see more excitement in expiring than in living. There is more honesty in ruin, more fascination in the end, more life in death’s shadow than in the numb routine people call existence. That is the energy running through this portrait.

The skull is positioned that way on purpose — it is turning to look at you. It is not there for style points. It is the real stare of the piece. The face looks forward, but the skull turns toward the viewer like the part buried underneath has become conscious and decided to confront you itself.

This self-portrait is not asking for approval. If people do not like what it says, they can go fuck themselves. It is the dark side of my mind, stripped bare: flesh still here, but the spirit already finding more pull in the fire than in the fraud of living.

The last block has been unlocked. It will be the exhibition in Brooklyn hosted by Arrival Gallery - which will run on the same days as that of the Brighton show.

Here's the line-up (in no particular order):

Arrival Gallery: Brighton Chimera House Studios 18 Lower Rock Gardens, Brighton, ENG BN2 1PG June 26 - 28

Arrival Gallery: London their.gallery 56 Dawes Rd Fulham London SW6 7EJ UK. July 10 - 12

The Holy Art Gallery: New York Mriya Gallery 101 Reade Street, New York, Tribeca, 10013, USA July 10 - 13

Arrival Gallery: Brooklyn Seven House 35 Meadow Street, Suite 103, Brooklyn, NY, USA June 26 - 28

The work shows a man submerged beneath water, pulled downward by a heavy anchor while reaching toward the faint light above. His body is still fighting for the surface, but the weight beneath him suggests something stronger than physical struggle — memory, guilt, grief, exhaustion, or the unseen burdens that make escape feel impossible.

The water becomes both prison and silence. It does not rage. It surrounds. It absorbs. It turns panic into stillness.

Through its dark blue palette and pixelated decay, Heavier Than Breath reflects the feeling of being dragged under by what one carries internally. The anchor is not only an object; it is a symbol of emotional weight, the kind that makes even breathing feel like labor.

At its core, the piece is about the quiet violence of burden — and the fragile instinct to keep reaching, even when the depth has already claimed you.
