I am particularly interested in art as a metaphoric social observation. I would like to explore and expose the habitual acts of routine and repetition  that most people settle into on a day-to-day basis. Essentially I want to visually study how we (people / society) interact, react and submit to media and its influences. Also ultimately how it eventually dictates the way we define and identify ourselves. I am interested in visually deconstructing the layman  person's perception and inference of life. I will explore these ideas through a variety of mediums and formats including photography, video, sculpture and installation and through this hybrid of mediums, I believe in its strengths that can shape and control “the scale and form of human association and action”. Thus, I find Fine Arts as an ideal platform to exercise or experiment on my projects.

 

I am also keen on the idea of space or distance and the way we view art and define art in this contemporary society. In my work I want to explore opportunities for viewing and composing art outside the traditional gallery or museum environment, bringing the message closer to the masses. I would like to do this by creating site-specific projects that allows me to incorporate the viewer as an active, conscious analytical participant without any third party influences. I believe this participation can take a variety of unconventional forms, that would result in revealing common social threads and ideologies through personal habits and lifestyle. I wish to explore and acknowledge our often universal habits and desire for social consistency and/or conformity through the juxtaposition of information acquired from everyday people, and media such as television, magazines and newspapers. I am interested in the effects of the media on the average person and how that in turn dictates the way they affect their surroundings, so I would like, whenever possible, to incorporate media specific mediums such as fine arts, film and photography to parallel and question the effects of technology and media in our day to day living.

 

The productive tension between social histories and politics that are bound to ideas of innate truth and realism and experimental artistic direction and practices which pushes the boundaries of what is real and the imaginary is more appropriate than ever to explain the most profound questions about the nature of representation, our engagement with the world, aesthetic articulation and the relationship between the real and the virtual Metaphorically, the "content" of a medium acts as a juicy piece of meat carried by the burglar to distract the watchdog of the mind. This means that people tend to focus on the obvious, which is the visual content, to provide us valuable information, but in the process, we largely miss the structural changes in the social affairs and cultural dissemination that are introduced subtly, or over long periods of time. As society's values, norms and ways of doing things change because of the technology, it is then we realize the social implications of the medium. 

At present, my work is limited by my resources and lack of knowledge skills especially in fine arts as I have only mastered the medium of digital media.  Therefore I believe that it is best if I could use fine arts to further express these concerns visually into a defining impulse of this current era.
