Interests:

My personal interest in Art is very much the ‘glitch aesthetic,’ and enjoy experimenting in contemporary methods of practice and with analogue/digital technology. Artists such as "Geiger,” “Man Ray” and “INO” are of great influence to me to name a few and also photographers like

“Floris Neusüss.”

Both realism and abstract styles I am also interested in but also the contemporary art scene and Renaissance era as well.
