This exhibition confronts the reality of industrial pollution through my series Polluters, presented in a set of three striking triptychs. Using my signature light boxes— which I call Capsules—I transform digitally manipulated photographs and mixed media compositions into immersive, three-dimensional artworks. Each piece is encased in epoxy, distorting industrial landscapes to serve as both a time capsule and a warning.
In this series, the imagery of electric grids, oil rigs, and industrial structures highlights the infrastructure driving modern civilization while exposing its environmental consequences. These networks of power, designed to sustain society, also contribute to its ecological decline. By embedding these altered images in resin, I emphasize their permanence—both as physical objects and as symbols of humanity’s lasting impact on the planet.
The glowing, layered depths of the Capsules evoke the eerie beauty of contamination, challenging our complacency. They transform industrial landscapes into haunting yet mesmerizing compositions, urging viewers to reconsider the price of progress. Through this interplay of light, texture, and distortion, Polluters serves as a stark reflection on the fragile balance between innovation and destruction.
