I am a visual artist exploring the relationships between science, technology, and the cultural symbols that bind humanity to the natural world. My work moves between optical systems, symbolic language, and environmental perception—culminating in projects such as the Climate Sphere Initiative, which extend these investigations to a planetary scale.

​

Natural rainbows—generated by sunlight—function both as a language of the stars and as a scientific key: astronomers, physicists, and chemists rely on dispersion and spectrum to interpret the universe.

​

To work within this intersection, I developed an optically clear dispersive lens of my own design that allows me to “render in rainbows.” Using only naturally dispersed sunlight, the work remains grounded in physical reality even as it moves through perception, myth, and cultural memory.

​

Across cultures, the rainbow has long served as a universal symbol—a bridge between humanity and the divine, between material reality and imagination. I understand the role of the artist in similar terms: as an intermediary translating between scientific understanding and symbolic experience.

​

I look to prehistory for guidance in confronting the contemporary environmental condition. Cultures more than 10,000 years old lived in intimate relationship with their ecosystems, and their earliest storytelling traditions emerged directly from observation of the physical world. Sites such as Lascaux and the Cueva de los Manos reveal image-makers who did not separate environment from meaning, or perception from belief.

​

Drawing on another enduring cultural symbol—the telescope—I create sculptural optical instruments inspired by the handprints of the Cueva de los Manos, most notably in my Impressions of the Body series. Through this work, I seek to reestablish cultural links between perception and environment, and to question the modern notion of humanity as separate from the natural world.

​

Working across photography, painting, sculpture, optics, and short film, I approach movement between mediums as a form of synthesis, with each discipline reinforcing the whole.

My current body of work, the Climate Sphere Initiative, extends these investigations to a planetary scale. These globes—constructed from materials including brass, aluminum, wood, marble, crystal, and porcelain, and increasingly incorporating AI-informed systems—translate environmental data into perceptible form.

​

In these works, environmental conditions are not only visualized but embedded—through material, structure, and coded elements—creating layered systems of meaning that operate between the visible and the inferred. In this way, environmental change is no longer abstract; it becomes spatial, perceptible, and shared.

​

In an era marked by fragmentation, the climate crisis is also a crisis of perception. The Climate Sphere is conceived as a unifying symbolic instrument—bringing science, culture, and perception into a shared experiential framework, and inviting renewed awareness and collective responsibility for the living world.
