Recently he’s more known in the art scene with his solo shows in well-established art galleries both local & international. This is his first solo art show at the Underground gallery, and not only he brings new art works, but also installations that feature his vision using plastic bricks that includes recycled material from broken glass, paper, and plastic.

His latest solo show "Can't Tell Where Alpha Ends & Omega Begins" defines his perspective use primarily of plastic oversize bricks for some of the pieces being exhibit at the lower ground gallery.

But the one that catches your eye is the plastic bricks and also utilizes other materials to produce installations that can be used as display in your home. Well-lighted neon jars or an expressive electric fan that shouts out “NO” in bright neon red lights can simply become a conversation piece if you know where to place it.
