I just create. I always have. I love to be myself. My soul gifts art to whoever wants to receive it. My empathy is my greatest gift.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Writing, photography, cosplay, cartooning, sculpture, clothes making, acting, modeling, collaborative art is awesome.
Where do you find inspiration?Inspiration comes through the earth and life experiences. People are people everywhere. I have traveled to Egypt alone and to Haiti with a documentary crew in 2013 to document the failure of Western aid years after the 2010 earthquake. I’ve worked in death penalty indigent defense since 2017. I have never met an evil baby - monstrous acts come about as a result of trauma/disease/dysfunction, etc.
What would you do with $25,000?I founded a non-profit to help the homeless I haven’t gotten funding yet. I would like to create an art project for them that could also be functionally useful in their daily lives, like a homeless park with showers, bathrooms, a pavilion, and a privacy fence where they could camp out of sight, with some privacy. They could paint the fence exterior with their thoughts and dreams. Reset the Record: https://resettherecord.art.blog/
