Surreal + abstract + experimental expressions often lurking in a swimming pool of unconsciousness.

Stop signs should be banned, metaphorically speaking.

Welcome to outer space, located in the clutches of the subconscious.
Never open your eyes until a whole world resides inside. I'm bringing out the unconsciousness like holding a piece of meat to a hungry lion.

This is dream weather & subconscious rain. Under this hat, dreams are edible.
Interests
I started going around Los Angeles' public hotspots displaying (or trying to) a piece of art to make a statement on workaholism and the need to find creative freedom.

Some people work too hard and forget they're following a daily routine that is slowly killing them. BalloonHead represents that eager creative intensity that should be exploited but is often shunned and denied.
Balloons are freedom, a rainbow of colours is the exit from a mundane world.

I've also created a short video documentary on the adventure so far. Should public art be removed depending on the content and message? Or does the content even matter?

You're running your life from scratch. You're a desperate beginner, anxious to distract yourself, starving to believe Urself, invisible to see Urself. So up & down the spiral, convalescent in the glut. Sift rite thru the filth & flack, sit back and relax.
