STATEMENT
Gomez’s work investigates the internal and external spaces we inhabit as human beings. Using illusionistic patterns and figural forms to represent both literal and metaphorical environments, he creates settings that bridge the physical and virtual realms. Integrating 3D modeling, painting, and sculpture, his practice moves between the tangible and the artificial, questioning how we engage with both embodied and formless space. His work examines how perception, technology, and material intersect to shape our understanding of presence and identity.
