I’m pleased to announce my solo exhibition, “Abiogenesis”, at @artotellondonhoxton . This show features an augmented reality installation exploring hypotheses of the inanimate origins of life and reflecting on the endless cycles of genetic transformation.
In Abiogenesis, I examine the concept of beginnings through biological rhetoric, inspired by Alexander Oparin’s theory of abiogenesis. Using abstract elements and pixels, I explore life’s cycles from birth to an imagined “afterlife.” This work challenges our perceptions of reality, existence, survival, and the interplay of matter and technology.
A huge thank you to art’otel London Hoxton for supporting emerging artists and providing this wonderful space.
📍 5-27 Kingsland Road, London E2 8AA
📅 Exhibition Dates: 20 November - 1 December 2024
From Slant series: «A substitute reality where white is black is not a book plot anymore. Society is under the influence of a government that spreads propaganda through TV and other informational sources. Words became a lever of control. For those who are against the system – taking a risk in expressing an opinion literally means being called a traitor and being sent to jail.»
