His work is not limited to paintings, large-scale projects, sculptural works and NFTs make up a vast amount of his artistic oeuvre, notable examples include his giant inflatable lobster that he provided for the 59th Venice Biennale in 2022, his creation of ‘Lobsteropolis’ – a digital, virtual-reality artistic universe, and his vast array of tactile, vibrant, smaller-scale sculptures of lobster figures.
