My daily commitment to prototyping, brainstorming, sketching, and illustrating. A playground for my ideas.
Each day, I turn the mundane into meaningful practice, capturing the essence of the moment. My sketchbook reflects my mood, weather, location, and experimental designs. It's a visual diary blending spontaneity and structure.
The map captures the concrete blocks of NYC's iconic 5th Avenue and preserves my favorite journey: a walk from Parsons School of Design to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The concept of creating a map based on the shape of the pavement provided an opportunity to view maps from a different perspective.
Named after Cronus, the Greek Titan of Time and Harvest, the work is a visual discourse on the ongoing human manipulation of agricultural products over time for aesthetic and commercial gain. The central feature of this work was the juxtaposition of ancient fruits against their modern counterparts. The former are riddled with seeds, less cosmetically pleasing, and smaller in size, while the latter are often seedless, flawless cosmetically, and plump and large in size. From watermelons to corn, the juxtaposition highlighted not only the significant changes in size, color, and form but also prompted viewers to reflect on the underlying values and implications of these transformations. By presenting models of uncultivated, wild fruits alongside those that have been extensively bred and genetically modified, the work vividly illustrated the transformation these fruits have undergone.
"Cronus for Dessert" was not just an artistic endeavor but also an educational experience that encouraged visitors to consider the implications of continuing down a path focused primarily on aesthetic improvements. It asked whether the pursuit of beauty and bounty in our agricultural products might come at an unseen cost to biodiversity, nutritional value, and ecological balance. In essence, the piece aimed to make the invisible visible.

Even though it might seem outdated, I love drawing cityscapes and architectural environments on paper. The work is my favorite ink on paper illustration that evokes nostalgia through a labyrinthine cityscape of decaying structures and winding staircases. This work aims to create a hauntingly beautiful visual narrative.
In a world ravaged by global warming and escalating resource scarcity, societal structures have transformed into a stark hierarchy. The maximum temperature has reached unbearable levels, and waste disposal has become an insurmountable challenge, leading to an environment where outdoor life is no longer viable. As a result, humanity has retreated indoors, creating a divided existence. Those with power and wealth reside in the upper echelons, enjoying a life of luxury, while the less fortunate are confined to the lower levels, living near the refuse that society can no longer manage.
The work is an abstract 3D composition featuring vibrant prismatic shapes in a deep black setting. This experimental work explores light and color interplay through dynamic forms, creating a complex and immersive visual experience.
