Exploring themes of identity and place, he contests notions of cultural belonging through an expanded video, drawing and installation practice. His research has led him to create performative walks along contested borders, embody nonsensical choreographies amidst war bunkers as well as diaristic pieces which speak to the queer experience.
His work has been exhibited and screened internationally in venues including: The Bronx Museum of the Arts (New York, NY), Savvy Contemporary (Berlin, DE), LUX (London, UK), Hua International Gallery (Berlin, DE), Iklectic (London, UK), PS120 (Berlin, DE), Momenta Art (Brooklyn, NY), Art Exchange (Colchester, UK), The Centro Cultural Chacao (Caracas, VE), and POLIN (Warsaw, PL).
Recently, he was shortlisted for the 2023 cycle of the Bloomberg New Contemporaries Award (UK). He has received travel grants from Asylum Arts and the Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art; the latter, to study Nicholas Grimshaw's "Eden Project" in Cornwall, UK. He was selected to participate in the 38th cycle of the Artist in the Marketplace program (AIM) at the Bronx Museum of the Arts, New York, in the fall of 2018.
He has participated in various residencies including the Watermill Center (Watermill, NY), The Wassaic Artists' Residency (Wassaic, NY), Hangar Centro de Investigação Artística (Lisbon, PT) and ZK/U - Zentrum für Kunst und Urbanistik (Berlin, DE). His work has been reviewed in Hyperallergic, Artnet, Art Observed, Architizer, El Nacional and ArteFuse.
