Dark Romance

Dark Romance explores the connection between biological knowledge and personal experience, tracing how it moves beyond academic frameworks to permeate times of crisis in life. This interplay examines the sensory dissonance between what we know and what we feel — between the embodiment of knowledge and the personalization of science. The works textured with dense organic micrographs and fragmented motifs of eye floaters, motor and visual proteins. They create a tension between sensory experiences and scientific data, blurring the lines between symbols and patterns. They fracture functional scientific visualizations, blending biology, storytelling, and fiction into a hybrid form. Dark Romance unravels how knowing, obsession, fantasy, and horror bleed into one another, morphing and feeding off each other in an evolving cycle.
