Artist statement

‍Single Use is a commentary on the reach and permanence of single-use plastics in our environment. It aims to capture the beauty of the natural world while revealing how deeply plastic has embedded itself in both ecological systems and daily life.

Song: "Disaster" — originally composed by Soyo Oka for SimCity. Covered by Michael Lementi.

Selected Outputs
Abstract digital artwork featuring a large translucent pink ring with pixel-like blocks in teal, yellow, white, and orange radiating outward on a dark background. Smaller blocks float chaotically across the composition.

Objects made to be thrown away never quite leave.

Run

Geometric abstraction with bold black and red shapes twisting across a vivid yellow and green background. Layered arcs and fans of color suggest motion and tension.

They collect in unplanned patterns.

Run

Fragmented pastel and black shapes create a crystalline, mountainous scene. Light pinks and purples dominate the left, while the dark background on the right is scattered with tiny white and violet dots.

Some settle, some scatter.

Run

A collage of jagged, overlapping shapes in purples, blues, and pinks set against a diagonal split of black and pale green. Dotted particle trails move across the center, evoking dispersal.

But the shape remains.

Run

A high-contrast abstract image with dense, scribbled purple forms and sharp white gaps. Overlayed lines in green, blue, and orange cut across a bright, almost white background with faint texture.

Too perfect to break down, too many to ignore.

Run

Angular collage of jagged yellow, white, and multicolored marbled layers forming a chaotic shard-like structure.
Curved yellow and orange striations ripple across a textured pink and grey background, scattered with colorful pixel clusters.
Soft, swirling gradients of teal and green fade into white, with a few small scattered dots and a yellow rectangle near the bottom.
Tilted form with black, purple, and teal distortion ripples across a peach background, interrupted by a few solid color blocks.
Vertical pillar composed of red, yellow, pink, and black pixel blocks, dissolving upward into misty greys and whites.
Large red circle sliced with angular lines, floating over a pale blue background with small red and teal squares.
Abstract field of gold and ochre tones layered with cloudy blue and orange patches and floating pastel rectangles.
Pink-toned canvas with red scribbled loops and teal pixel clusters forming a sense of kinetic, scribbled tension.
Light pastel planes of grey, blue, and lavender intersect with scattered pixel dots and soft gradients.
Rectangular grid of soft greys, beige, and black shapes arranged against a blue background, with vertical accent lines in red and yellow.
Dense black mass arcs across a green field, layered with bright pixel blocks and tiny dots suggesting motion.
Monochrome black composition with soft spiraling strokes and scattered white dots beneath sharp white lines.
Explosive motion of pink and black lines cutting diagonally across a dark field, intersected by floating pixel blocks.
Vertical tangle of bold black, yellow, and white striped lines rising beneath a large orange shape.
Geometric composition of soft green and black shapes layered with neon green stripes, centered on a brown background.
Curving ribbons of multicolored ovals twist upward across a pastel pink background, evoking motion and depth.
Pale abstract form with peach, white, and pink gradients, featuring a glowing yellow square and a horizontal smear of color.
Overlapping angular planes in bright orange and pink, filled with tight diagonal lines and scattered square pixels.
Floating brush-like cluster of dark teal marks with small square accents over a pale, minty gradient background.
Blocky glitch-style composition of saturated red, teal, blue, and black rectangles, intersected by three bands of pixelated static.
Spiral of overlapping translucent geometric shapes in pale grey, turquoise, and yellow, circling a center dotted with black and red specks.
Angular pastel landscape with overlapping planes of mint green, coral pink, and checkered beige rectangles forming a mountainous shape.
Dark abstract scene with curved striped fragments floating on a deep navy background, lined with faint arcs and red pixel clusters.
