BIOGRAPHY

In my youth, I always possessed an insatiable need to draw and sketch. I soon became immersed in digital art, initially captivated by video game design; I learned 3D modeling and rendering using 3D Studio Max. Concurrently, the early days of the internet sparked my interest in web coding, particularly HTML. As I explored these new digital tools, I began creating my own graphics, dissatisfied with the premade options available online. This period of experimentation ignited my passion for design.

I explore various facets of graphic design, from print to digital media, seeking new boundaries of creativity. My work extends into typographic collages, or experimental typography, a blend of text with found objects and diverse materials. These pieces create layered, multidimensional compositions that challenge traditional design conventions.

A journey of continuous growth and discovery, my approach to design is one that leads to work that is both conceptually profound and visually compelling. I remain committed to pushing the boundaries of my craft, always seeking new ways to communicate and connect through art and design.

ARTIST STATEMENT

My work is a deliberate exploration of the intersection between traditional craftsmanship and digital innovation. As an artist, designer, and cultural observer, I navigate the complexities of identity, time, and perception, employing a diverse range of media—acrylic paint, graphite, paper, digital collage, and found objects—to weave narratives that transcend the ordinary.

Rooted in a deep appreciation for the geometric precision of mathematics and the fluidity of scientific principles, my art often embodies a visual tension between chaos and order. This interplay is not merely aesthetic but philosophical, reflecting the dualities I perceive in life: the structured and the spontaneous, the tangible and the abstract, the old world and the new.

Influenced by my cultural heritage and the transformative journey of migrating from Sudan to the United States, my work serves as a dialogue between past and present, personal and collective histories. I strive to break down the barriers between the seen and the unseen, the known and the unknown. Found objects—imbued with history and meaning—are integral to my typographic collages, grounding my work in the physical world while simultaneously inviting viewers to consider the intangible aspects of existence. My approach to experimental typography, inspired by early influences from my time at Virginia Commonwealth University, further blurs the lines between text and image, structure and freedom.
