I create art to turn emotion into something people can feel. Art gives a voice to the parts of life words cannot explain.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
My favorite form of art is painting because it allows me to capture emotion, chaos, beauty, and imagination all on one canvas.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in human emotion, music, memories and everyday moments that most people overlook. Beauty exists in the raw and imperfect.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use the $25,000 to create without limits. To turn ideas, emotion, and imagination ain’t art that makes people feel seen. I’d invest in my craft, collaborate with other artists, and create work that leaves a lasting impact.
