Erick Sommet
Starting from a process of reinvention through the reordering and remixing of sculptural, graphic, musical, and technological knowledge, I am interested in creating works at the intersection of art and social processes such as migration.
My work, which is expressive, surreal, and symbolic in nature, seeks to transcend the boundaries between reality and imagination through associative and interdisciplinary narratives.
These works aim to reflect on the various ways we relate to one another as social and cultural beings.
