I’m a Los Angeles-based public artist and product design engineer and my work fuses emotional resonance with engineering precision. Diagnosed with ASD and ADHD, I transform neurodivergence into a superpower — fueling a practice rooted in structure, sensory awareness, and human connection. Technology and engineering are foundations of my art journey and I explore function and mechanics to create new meanings and interpretations. Whether crafting a festival installation that responds to color-coded clothing or developing a mechanically adjustable device, my work bridges the technical and the poetic.
Artainment:
I specialize in creating immersive "Artainment" experiences, a blend of art and entertainment that transcends traditional categories. My work isn't just about serious art, nor is it merely entertainment—it's a fusion of both, offering something entirely new.
Interactive Installations:
My installations go beyond just visual appeal. I use advanced sensors to track human movement, but my true focus is on creating interactive experiences that engage people naturally, without the need for additional devices. I capture the essence of human interactions—hugs, senses, diversity, choices, and playfulness—and translate them into tangible art. Hugs are a central theme in my work, adding a unique element that makes my installations truly one-of-a-kind.
This seamless blend of technology and human connection echoes Arthur C. Clarke's famous Third Law:
"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."
"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."
Craft & Experience:
I specialize in crafting light sculptures that serve as captivating focal points within cityscapes, architecture, streets, and buildings. While natural locations are also considered, I primarily prefer to integrate my works into various city objects and infrastructure. This could range from ancient towers or castles to modern buildings or bridges, even light posts. Though highly complex, my previous experiences serve as strong evidence of skills and capabilities to execute such bold ideas. My art's connection with architecture goes beyond mere aesthetics, integrating additional functionality typical of architectural design.
Permanent Commissions:
I aim to secure permanent art commissions that extend beyond traditional settings. Whether indoors or outdoors, I approach each project with an open mind, ensuring that my installations integrate harmoniously with their surroundings. My designs are not only visually compelling but also deeply connected to the values and identity of the communities they serve. I emphasize sustainability, creating enduring artworks that will enrich the cultural landscape for years to come.
Unification:
A crucial aspect of my art is its ability to unite people. Unlike some modern politicians who specialize in dividing humans, my creations foster a sense of togetherness and shared experiences. Through interactive participation, individuals discover common ground and shared emotions, promoting harmony and understanding.
Event Commissions:
I offer unique light art for events of all sizes, from large public gatherings to private celebrations. Typically, this involves renting my existing art pieces, which can be adapted for various settings, whether indoor or outdoor, corporate or private. While my works have a distinct visual identity, they can be customized through engraving, background or tiling elements, or other bespoke solutions.

Custom Light and Interactive Art:
For those seeking something truly unique, I design custom light and interactive art installations specifically tailored to your brand, event, or theme. A standout example is my Izobrulo Polylight Interactive Logo, where the sculpture’s shape and color reflect the event's logo. Each interactive component is carefully crafted to align with the event’s identity.
Creative Technology Consulting for Artists:
This service is designed for individual artists or artist teams looking to incorporate interactivity into their work. I begin with your existing concept or artwork and provide a full range of services, from conceptualization and feasibility studies to the integration of hardware and software into the final piece.
