Resubmit after apparent previous nominations. Fails WP:ARTIST. Weak references don't support that these works have been particularly well-known, but merely received a scant amount of media attention in some online magazines. Doesn't not appear to be widely considered important or noted by peers, not particularly well-known for innovating any specific significant technique, etc. It also has an entirely unsourced Early life section, as well as a large amount of unsourced material in Life and work. Ultimately seems much more like a self-promoting resume on a personal website than a biography of a notable person. Ampersandbrown (talk) 02:23, 20 April 2017 (UTC)

- Keep The sources currently linked may or may not establish WP:NARTIST qualification, but they certainly do establish WP:GNG qualification, which supersedes. Multiple, significant, independent mentions in WP:RS. The Unlimited, Dazed, and Opening Ceremony may be entirely online but they are RS within the New York metro art scene. That doesn't even count the Buzzfeed article. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 18:56, 28 April 2017 (UTC)
- Delete Non-notable artist. References point to a 2014 event, and several are blogs, bad links, etc. No significant museum exhibitions or collections. Netherzone (talk) 23:20, 28 April 2017 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Black Kite (talk) 20:50, 29 April 2017 (UTC)
- Delete one event with largely non-reliable source coverage is not enough to pass notability guidelines for artists.John Pack Lambert (talk) 07:21, 30 April 2017 (UTC)
