"Pseudo-Environmentalism" explores the cognitive dissonance of modern sustainability. By elevating a bicycle as a traditional symbol of eco-friendly transportation on top of a clutter of disposable plastics, paper waste, and fast-food disposables, this work interrogates the "performative green" lifestyle.

GENRE: found objects installation
This piece is a visualization of the masks we wear in the Anthropocene. As we can see, a bike that goes nowhere, a plant in a ceramic skull, and a mountain of yesterday’s lunch: this is the anatomy of a sustainable facade. The work challenges the viewer to look past the symbols of green living and confront the structural waste holding them up.
"Revolution is Canned" is a site-specific, found-object installation that interrogates the commodification of historical revolutionary ideologies within the modern consumer landscape. Constructed entirely from mass-produced supermarket goods—specifically those associated with shelf-stability and basic hygiene (Campbell’s soup, toilet paper, bananas)—this work forms a temporary, domestic-scale monument to Marxism-Leninism.

GENRE: site specific installation, institutional installation, Dadaism
By replacing standard commercial branding with iconic portraits of figures like Vladimir Lenin and Mao Zedong, the installation visualizes the process by which potent historical change is sanitized and packaged. A can of soup becomes an object of ideological exchange. This work collapses the distance between the 'high' theory of revolution and the 'low' practicality of the shopping cart, questioning whether radical change has been rendered, preserved, or simply 'canned' for eventual consumption.
