- NexusNexus (2019) is an interactive visual installation that aims to question our relationship with technology and each other using simple principles of conductance and LED mapping using VJing software (Resolume). Drawing Inspiration from the ‘Creation of Adam’ by Michelangelo, our installation is a futuristic take on the Renaissance masterpiece.

- U:RE (WIP)U:RE (2019) is an interactive installation, designed to promote public awareness of the ease in which deepfakes can now be created. Furthermore, the politically provocative nature of U:RE is intended to encourage the discussion of the role in which deepfakes now play in the blurring of the line between fact and fiction. U:RE is an artistic response which drew inspiration from other deepfake artworks such as Jordan Peele's You Won’t Believe What Obama Says In This Video! More info Exhibition H
