2018-2019 art practice based on Critique of everyday life

Further, I envision this can be accomplished by eclectic genres, the inset of my own body as serviceable agency to question the axioms of matters, hierarchy, signs, representations and the semantics of icons which dominates day-to-day life materially, semiotically and socially.”
