In this body of work, I tried using seemingly abstract compositions to explore and question my concept and understanding of “Self Identity” while exploring and infusing parts of myself in each iteration in the most “not so unnoticeable” way.

It is believed that one’s self-identity can be influenced by the identities others place on us. This left me wondering who I am seen as. An imposter?

Is there a message I am trying to pass across? Am I trying to make you feel something? Is there a meaning I am trying to make you read into this? Is this just another one of my many desires to explore?

Or is this just another attempt to speak a language I do not fully understand — visual language?

Every part of this body of work is as intentional as intended as it is the most direct and somewhat easiest way for me to communicate my thoughts while leaving my audience to dissect and analyze the visuals while finding meaning or none.

With my multiple identities and my being different things to different people. Do I even believe this body of work is enough for a true expression of my very self? Again, Who am I? Does who I think I am changes with time?

What do you see? Cos all I see are lines and colours and forms of who I think I am. Is that all there is?

Abstract Expressions of Self-Identity 3

representation of a mental trip to the future. safe to say it didn't look so pretty. sometimes frightening too.


I've been to the future and it's not pretty

Synergism IV by 9GreenRats #1/10

Sensuality, like all other pieces in this series, is seen through the all-seeing eye.

The All-Seeing: Sensuality 

This piece is part of a series of works created in March '22 exploring my inner being, energy and aura.

Aura III

I also thought about how I find simple, subtle movements fascinating. For me, it's the beauty of seeing the simplest things in motion. Captivating of sorts.

It is said that our best moments in life are the ones spent with our families and loved ones. It is said that with them life appears more meaningful and a million times more beautiful.

Life is Beautiful, is what I tell myself when things aren't as they used to be. For me, It's a phrase that evokes memories of when things were how they were meant to be...happy, colourful, and beautiful...right and perfect!

It is said that our best moments in life are the ones spent with our families and loved ones. It is said that with them life appears more meaningful and a million times more beautiful.

Life is Beautiful, is what I tell myself when things aren't as they used to be. For me, It's a phrase that evokes memories of when things were how they were meant to be...happy, colourful, and beautiful...right and perfect!

It's been a long time coming, took a while for me to accept that one simple truth. Here I am, and here are my creations. Cherish them!

Here I am

Once All-powerful, they were
Once All-knowing, they were
Once All-seeing, they were
Forgers of destiny and fulfillers of dreams,
Kind, merciful, benevolent
However, all things fade away

The world no longer recognizes their relevance. Starved of purpose, they have almost lost all of their glow.
The one thing they have left is their little paradise, their abode, which was once not so little.
Now the once powerful gods cling to Hope. 

Abode of the forgotten gods (Still Version)

Welcome to a world of my own making where imagination and curiosity reside.

Kind, merciful, benevolent. 
Once fulfiller of destinies and forgers of dreams. 
However, all things fade and these gods were no exception.
Their world no longer recognizes or feels the need for their relevance.

Without purpose, they begin to lose their glow...
...to stone, they turn.
Getting frozen in place, in time.

Waiting...
Wondering if their chosen guardians survived this new world of men.
Waiting...for a saviour who would rekindle their relevance in the hearts of men.
Waiting...for Hope.

This piece is a personal representation of how my muses felt when it seemed the world and the ones around them no longer see them or recognize how relevant they once were. My muses became history amongst their peers and now they wait and hope that fortune would smile on them once more. Will it?

Among the first set of my 3D visualizations created in May 2022.


Abode of the Forgotten gods

Life is Beautiful as a complete body of work was made to convey feelings of hope, joy and bliss via colour usage and its varying composition.

Life is Beautiful

We are broken

My sudden realization that music heals and jazz music soothes, and its what some people have to hold on to, the same way I have art to hold on to. Share happiness to the world, one way or another.
