Intersections Between the Seen and the Unseen

Opening Reception: Saturday, April 4, 2026 | 6:00 – 9:00 PM 

On view: April 4 – May 16, 2026

This body of work explores the intersection of technology and mythology, where the two realms meet and shift. Through painting and drawing, I develop an imagined visual language shaped by the interplay of structure and randomness, precision and wonder. Drawing on cosmology, molecular physics, and other scientific fields, the imagery serves as a gateway to a dialogue between the seen and the unseen.

The exhibition is motivated by an interest in how ancient narratives persist in our technologically mediated world. By weaving scientific imagery with mythological echoes, the work reflects on how contemporary knowledge systems reshape, rather than replace, enduring myths. Scientific visuals are not presented as explanations but as symbolic forms—sites where empirical understanding and imaginative speculation coexist.

Collectively, the works invite viewers into a space of curiosity, ambiguity, and reflection. As the boundaries between fact and fiction, science and story begin to dissolve, the exhibition encourages a reconsideration of how meaning is constructed today. Rather than offering fixed conclusions, the work opens a contemplative field where viewers are invited to navigate uncertainty and reflect on how technology continues to influence our shared narratives, belief systems, and sense of wonder. The exhibition is intended to foster sustained looking, encouraging personal interpretation and dialogue rather than didactic reading.
