Perception Machine
This machine is made based on the mathematics of perspective drawing, re-interpreted into a 3D structure. The piece consists of two metal structures with holes/lenses on each side. Every lens functions as a viewpoint connected by wires intersecting in-between; looking through each hole enables the viewer to see different patterns from different lenses. The viewer cannot discern their own strings from another set of lines creating different results and narratives each time to reach beyond our own perception and reach connectedness regardless of opposing dogmas.
The machine allows a diversity of outcomes to emerge and intersect, and continuously creating new connection points. The outcomes of patterns created cannot be similar or copied, but they can be witnessed as intersections of thought structures that are endless in human history, allowing new realities for people, societies, and cultures to emerge into existence. Viewers can interact with the work as they see fit, looking through their own lens, and finding their own patterns.

Strings
This is a series of photographs that are a record of a reflection of perception itself. Using the same method in Perception Machine. The reflection of the strings in the middle is ephemeral and escaping asserting the tangible reality of conceptual intersections.
