Miljohn Ruperto: (Am)bivalent Images
By Melanie Pocock
A conversation with Miljohn Ruperto can feel like the mental equivalent of walking along multiple meandering paths and unexpectedly finding that they all converge. With interests in philosophy, art, and digital technology, the artist draws from diverse sources for his works. Among his influences are geomancy, a method of divination derived from decrypting patterns in nature; theories of the apocalypse; and parallels between molecular science and animism.
