About Artwork:

The artwork was created with the use of photogrammetry and glitch art. I like to explore the themes of sexuality, gender, and identity through self-portraiture and aesthetics of digital corruption. I call my artistic approach "post-fetish" (or "post-f3t!$h") as it's a reflection on the experience of fetishism and the liberation and empowerment it brings.
