Submission Collage

CYPHER

CYPHER brings together my experiences as an artist, breakdancer, graffiti writer, and two-sport college athlete. Growing up in hip-hop culture and competing in sports shaped how I see the world. Pattern recognition, repetition, rhythm, and competition have all influenced my approach to making art. I'm drawn to the cypher—the circle where dancers challenge one another, respond, and connect. There's a similar relationship between competitors. You're pushing against someone, but you're also learning from them. Through collage, abstraction, symmetry, and sacred geometry, I explore these connections. I work with images, figures, and patterns, cutting them apart and bringing them together in new ways. CYPHER is an ongoing investigation into movement, culture, and the things that connect us.
