Art that reacts to where it's placed

I've always been drawn to street art, not for the imagery itself, but for how unexpected it is. It shows up where you don't expect it and reacts to what's already there, the wall, the building next to it, the people walking past. The art isn't separate from its surroundings. It's part of them.

That idea shows up in both my murals and my canvas work. I'm less interested in a piece that just exists on its own, and more interested in how it interacts with whatever it's placed near or on top of.

Augmented reality is the newest tool I work with, and it takes that same idea further. A mural is tied to one wall. A painting is tied to one canvas. AR lets the same work exist across different physical spaces and respond differently to each one, without needing to be repainted. I use it to turn a fixed piece into something that can adapt to the room, the wall, or the event it's placed in.
