Biography
Samuel's artworks usually draw from intuition, scientific experimentation, architecture, engineering, sculpture, and kinetics, and contain many layers of cognitive interrogations, dramatization, aesthetic, sting, and humor. He takes an interdisciplinary approach to creation based on a theory that art does not have to be simply defined by a specific medium. He puts this theory into practice by engaging an idea first, and then he develops a plan that involves a combination of media, technologies, and techniques, some of which are associated with traditional
art media, and some of which find him working with media, technologies, and industries not usually associated with art-making.
In Samuel’s most recent works he manifests each idea in a unified three parts: drawing, object, and video. The drawings are engineer/architect-like which enable him to visualize and construct the object. He creates the object with the intention to situate it into a real-life setting, creating an unfamiliar scenario. The scenario’s unfamiliarity makes the situational outcome unpredictable. It is this unpredictability that Samuel is very much interested in. He explores this uncertainty by documenting the interaction in the scene, capturing the results
