Cellular Automata Video
The Gray-Scott Simulator is a real-time rendering tool for a class of reaction-diffusion systems that model how chemical concentrations evolve and spread through space over time. This kind of system produces self-organizing patterns — from spirals and spots to waves and turbulence — which I’ve related to both the ABBA Equation and the Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) Reaction. Let’s break down how this simulation…

Emergence Made Visible
🌟 The Harmonograph: Drawing the Geometry of Emergence Have you ever wondered what sound looks like? Or what happens when invisible vibrations give rise to visible form? Welcome to the world of the harmonograph — a deceptively simple yet deeply symbolic tool that turns oscillation into art, and waveforms into geometry. At its core, a harmonograph is a device — either…

Ferrofluid Prints Collection
This project is part of my ongoing exploration into the intersections of weaving, textiles, and printmaking, with an emphasis on how material properties and systems can inform artistic creation.
-

Harmonic Coherence Collection
This collection explores harmonic coherence as a principle of Emergence Theory—the way living systems organize through vibration, frequency, and feedback. When coherence emerges, it does so not by command, but by attunement: a resonance between form and field.

Mustard Tea Collection
This collection began with a subtle, embodied shift—a kind of awakening that felt more like remembering. While traveling in the tundra of Greenland, two wild herbs revealed themselves not just as subjects, but as messengers: Labrador Tea and Stinkweed (Wild Mustard).

Printing the Land Collection
This project is part of my ongoing exploration of weaving, textile art, and printmaking, rooted in a deep investigation of emergent systems and the complex behaviors that govern the natural world.
-

Electrography Collection
This project is a continuation of my ongoing exploration into the relationship between electricity and organic life. This portfolio explores the luminescence of electricity and its intimate connection to life itself.

A Tale of Letting Go Collection
This is a story told in fragments—through objects once held close, now adrift. A collar resting in a drawer, a plastic container quietly repurposed, a scale no longer measuring ingredients but balance itself.

Arranged Image Collection
Arranged Image is a collection of books and prints that explores the photographic tension between naturally occurring patterns and human-imposed order. Captured primarily during my travels, this body of work reflects on how objects—such as plantains—are often encountered in naturally emergent arrangements, shaped by environmental conditions, chance, and subtle, unseen forces.
