I am a multidisciplinary artist working primarily in the realm of animation, painting, and music. I typically focus on subjects relating to nostalgia of the early digital age. My work commonly appropriates imagery from the 90s-00s. Largely, the imagery is from video games, anime, and internet culture of the times, as a large portion of my childhood was spent experiencing this media, forming my personality and tastes to this very day. I find it largely significant to me and many others of my generation.
