I create , just as I breathe. Since childhood I've understood that art is undervalued yet essential to the growth of all living things.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I create a mix of media that not only helps my own growth and education, but also art that inspires others to delve into their own unique creativity and find the true calling of their voices.
Where do you find inspiration?Inspiration is everywhere in a world full of beauty and terror.
What would you do with $25,000?I have 3 projects that could use economic ladders, an illustrated semi-historical illustrated novel in progress,based in Bushwick Brooklyn, an illustrated memoir about living between the paradise of Puerto Rico, and the overstimulating concrete jungle of NYC, & a Collection of Sculptures Called The Last Tribe, which I am looking to exhibit in a pop up storefront or gallery ,the prize would provide the resources to bring all the work I've created, these last ten years, to fruition .
