Exhibition / Asemica
During the pandemic, I struggled with finding my creativity and I started an Instagram account where I began posting my asemic creations.
The word asemic means "having no specific semantic content" and I use this as an abstract form of typographic art which fuses shapes and text into a unity open to subjective interpretations.
As a typography lover, I really like finding new typefaces or details in letters. So, I began picking apart the letters from my favourite typefaces and twisting and turning them into shapes until they completely lack meaning. Sometimes I use the pieces of a serif typeface together with a different letter in italics, and sometimes I draw my own characters and modify them further so that they’re not even parts of letters anymore.
A few months after I started @asemic_art, I was contacted by the curator Heather Lowe, who wanted to use three of my pieces in an upcoming exhibition – "Asemic Notations" at IDOLWILD gallery in Los Angeles, in March 2023. IDOLWILD gallery also used my artwork for the promotional material for the exhibition.
If you're interested in buying prints, please contact me.
Feel free to check out my instagram for more asemic creations.
