The artwork aims to encapsulate the feelings caused by exploring a 'world' one cannot understand, diving into the high school setting from the perspective of the teenager. Creating the space, a world within a world, one plucked from within a dream, the viewers are cut off from the outside of the world. The walls covered with fabrics, a singular chair at the center of the room, they are isolated, placed in the shoes of the invisible protagonist, of the observer trying to understand the high school environment, the teenager trying to fit in, their anxiety rising with each failed attempt.
The creative project we created, titled “Power Fragmentation” is a Dada-inspired comical collage art board that explores the progression of psychological ruin of the mind of an undemocratic leader in a therapy session. With the use of fragmented text, surreal unison of cut-out images from magazines, and absurd humor, this creative piece serves as a critique of historically established power structures and the role that paranoia plays in the subjects' lives. In the conceptual therapy session, we take advantage of what is a traditionally serious setting and make it the center stage for exposing an undemocratic ruler losing their mind.
My experiment, or rather my demonstration, aims to showcase the effects of electromagnetism As a result, I came up with the idea of the neodymium magnet free falling through a copper tube. The main principle is that as the magnet falls inside the copper tube, the flux of the magnetic field causes electrical currents in the copper tube which in turn creates their own magnetic fields that interact with the magnetic field of the magnet causing it to slow down its fall. It was made apparent that the effect is substantial, and I tried to measure it by calculating the net acceleration which came at around 2,5% of the gravity acceleration..
The triptych depicts the fight to escape my old life. The first painting “The Dead Man’s Life” illustrates a life with no purpose, no emotion, lying as a dead man wasting my life away. It continues with the second art piece, “The Rebellion”, which shows my rebellion from this way of life, as I attempt to destroy everything related to that period. Lastly, “The Liberation” showcases my achievement of reaching a life with new purpose and ambitions full of color and emotions around the world of art.
“My Own World” is a 70x50cm drawing which was made using soft pastels, markers, pencils and colored pencils. This drawing was inspired by one of my favorite video games, “Mobile Legends Bang Bang”. It shows my three favorite characters from that game in the battlefield. This drawing expresses how video games, especially this one, are very important to me since they helped me gain confidence, humor, friends, and a sense of escape and safety from reality’s harsh grasp on my life.
Memorial for the anonymous casualties in the Gaza conflict. An artwork that intends to reinstate the humanity of those lives otherwise forgotten due to their statistical representation.
The age of Big Technology raises an important societal question: do we have a freedom of personal information that is an inseparable part of our identity in cyber space? My artwork reflects on two major opposite feelings regarding this issue using a bird as the most common symbol of freedom in art. The positive aspect of simplicity and freedom of IoT usage is portrayed in the overall composition: the bird flies away without being disturbed by a bracelet. Smart devices are akin to a mystery box that contains everything about us. Only external forces know how to unlock it. Equipped with the various sensors and connected to a smartphone, IoT devices are fully integrated into people’s and animals’ daily chores. And this also has a negative impact such as data privacy risks depicted in the data leakage metaphor and exposure of different data sheets.

A bunch of drawings will be presented, most made by me, but some made by my friends. Each drawing is a body that has been drawn to represent either a vague word such as “void” or “desert” or the bodily representation of an instrumental music track. All of the drawings were made either by stimuli given from me to my friends or words they gave to me, and I had to give them a body. It is a project made to challenge anthropocentrism and post-humanism, and examine how we as people perceive the world around us, including our own concepts.
In my artwork, I weave Christian symbolism into every aspect, aiming to evoke a profound spiritual experience. The baptismal bed symbolizes purification, while the illuminated canvases represent the primary colors used in byzantine portraits of saints,
guiding viewers on a journey of faith and self-discovery, inviting them to deepen their connection with the divine or to simply tag along on my journey towards accepting Christ into my life.
