His work has been met with widespread critical acclaim, resulting in numerous international exhibitions at spaces such as the Parasol Unit for Contemporary Art in London, the Kunsthalle Bern in Switzerland, and The Renaissance Society at the University of Chicago, and is featured in the collects ions of the The Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Mori Art Museum in Tokyo, and the Tate Gallery in London, among others.
