1: an artist, designer, and polymath known most for his uniquely designed timepieces, apparel, vibrant illustrations, and beat making.
2: the name of the artist's original super hero character with abilities of space and time manipulation.
"As an artistic kid growing up in the 90s, I loved to use my imagination, and wondered what kind of hero I might be.
I created the original concept of this character in the early 2000s for a college illustration class, and has since evolved.
For years while living in Harlem, NYC, I professionally designed timepieces and studied horology, so the storyline and character's powers naturally revolve around the theme of time." - G
