“Alter Ego!”, was my debut solo showing at RMCAD's Rude Gallery. Inspired by silver age comic books, box car graffiti, and alternative hip hop; the showing elevates the sketchbook doodles from my creative origins into an original collection of paintings and drawings. The abstract nature of belonging and identity are explored through a vibrant menagerie of color, shape, and line.
Originally proposed and accepted in the spring of 2024,“Alter Ego!” opened in late 2025, running September 1st through November 14th. The October 3rd reception was aligned with the opening of my curated group show, "Oddities Noir" and my featured work in the juried RMCAD 62nd Annual Student Exhibition.

All of the design materials needed to match over the vibrant, comic book aesthetic of the works in order to create a more immersive viewer experience. Labels became narration boxes, the gallery guide an interactive pamphlet, and so on.

spring 2024 initial proposal
Installation was delayed due to renovation in the gallery space. I used this extra time as an opportunity to revise the initial concept towards a clearer vision that was more in-line with my sketchbook roots seen in The Oddity Project.
