Contact: contact.kiralworld@gmail.com

I am a research-based multimedia artist trained both as a journalist and as a commercial communicator.
Informed by my ambiguous background, my practice is centered on critically exploring media (from Latin medium "the middle, midst, center; interval,") as a concept as well as in terms of content and form, and thus fundamentally on in-betweeness and connectivity.
I am interested in investigating, among others, the encounters between the concepts of imagined realities, beliefs, "truths" and memories in the digital realm, by using academic references and found Internet-based materials.
In order to dissect, edit and mix these objects of investigation, I misuse a marketing and entertainment methodology called "transmedia storytelling" which consists of connecting non-linear narrative strands spread across media within one universe to create a coordinated experience.
As a prolongation of my transmedia practice, I am also conducting research on experimental sensorial mediation supports, mediating vision through smells and audition through haptics.
