I spend a lot of time in my head. It's something we all do, creating secret worlds within our minds. These private places provide us with a necessary escape. Over time, they shape who we are. These imaginative realms are built upon our half-remembered experiences and emotions, distorted through the lens of nostalgia.
This body of work originates from this secret world. My inspiration comes from midcentury advertisements and old comics, which I then transform into iconic figures. These recurring characters symbolize memories, feelings of security, desires, and even fears. - Travis Knight
