“The Gate” (2024) is an installation-based series of work that investigates surveillance, myth, and the psychological effects of digital acceleration. At its center stands a 3D-printed sculpture of Cerberus, the mythological guardian of the underworld—reimagined as a somber, watchful figure surveying a fractured landscape of stretched canvases, inkjet prints, and sculptural panels. These modular forms are collaged, stitched, and mounted with painted and printed canvas, evoking the aesthetics of smooth digital surfaces while resisting clarity and coherence. Drawing on personal archive, classical symbolism, and contemporary media theory, “The Gate” reflects on the body as both observer and observed, and on the shifting boundaries between memory, mythology, and mediated experience.
