The Artbridger Sponsorship Program reflects a commitment to supporting artists beyond commercial transactions, offering the infrastructural backing, critical mentorship, and international mobility required for long-term career longevity. Operating as an incubator for artistic practice, the initiative connects artists with established curators, critics, and market professionals to refine their work, articulate their critical narratives, and navigate complex institutional frameworks. By facilitating access to global residencies, curatorial site visits, and group exhibitions alongside dedicated editorial profiling and critical writing, Artbridger ensures an artist's practice is documented with rigor and presented thoughtfully to global audiences, prioritizing sustainable creative autonomy over immediate market turnarounds.

Almagest Equilibrium Undertaker

2024

This artwork presents a dense, vertically structured cosmology, built around a large central void that immediately draws the eye into a field of instability and suspended meaning. The composition is layered with mythic and celestial forms, with the upper register evoking a human-centred model of the universe, surrounded by entangled bodies and atmospheric currents that suggest a constructed order. Around the empty centre, a ring of figures appears to sustain a fragile equilibrium, as if alternate dimensions, concepts, and states of reality are being held in suspension. The lower register gathers minor deities and undertakers in scenes of labour, debate, and collective presence, suggesting a dispersed and unstable sentience. The warm orange and red accents interrupt the black-and-white surface, intensifying the sense of tension and fragmentation while reinforcing the work’s sculptural rhythm. Across these strata, the image speculates on alternative orders of existence, where material, conceptual, and intangible states intersect, and where balance between opposing forces becomes necessary for processes of formation and manifestation. The work resists a single narrative, instead presenting a charged visual field in which excess, abstraction, and cosmology remain in continual negotiation.

The top tier contains the Almagest, a human-centric viewpoint of the universe, proposed by Ptolemy is adorned by the remaining solar system entities. In the middle the deities of formlessness and concepts uphold the equilibrium of balances between alternate dimensions and reality. At the bottom the minor deities and undertakers are debating, working and rejoicing on the sentience. This is the effort to speculate alternate orders that are the husks of passage and existence, concepts and intangibility; there needs balance between extremities in order for a correct functioning of processioning and manifestation. Any off-balance will result in catastrophic consequences that not even gods can salvage and everyone, not just the perpetrators, will suffer. The style within this print is influenced by extreme aesthetics, in which to overwhelm the audience, encouraging them to look at my drawing closer, and also eliminating the need for a narrative. It is this motive that I am trying to contradict its message mentioned above: the formlessness and shapeshifting quality that our surroundings inhibit.
