System
We focused on the organic behavior of the system itself, which interacts with each other and maintains equilibrium as if it were alive. This work finds beauty in complex interactions by constructing a computer simulation of an object composed of primitive shapes, visualizing and exaggerating its response to force and the resulting movement's effect on space.

He explores expressions that present new ways of seeing, such as extracting the beauty of simple elements from complex objects and creating complex movements by combining simple rules.
AD ASTRA
We are all born from the same source, we all live and learn from our surroundings. Sometimes it takes courage to dream and to do something different, something no one else is doing. We must have a clear idea of what we want to accomplish and make the utmost effort to face any difficulties or problems. First, we must realize that our greatest enemy is ourselves and face it. Accept where you are, where you belong, and who you are. Let us be prepared to start moving toward the stars, to shine, and to contemplate the difficulties ahead. And take pride in the fact that we have overcome all difficulties. Everyone sees us shining to get closer to our own dreams. We break out of our molds in every area. And then we move on to the next dream. Because, after all, we are the shining stars of our own lives.
