I create art from visions within my mind—like thoughts pre-programmed into a language only I can translate.
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 kind of art comes from things that have been thrown away or left in their natural state. I don’t really have a specific direction—I just go with what’s around me and what I find. If something speaks to me, I use it. I see beauty in things that might not mean anything to anyone else, and I turn them into something new.
Where do you find inspiration?My inspiration is internal. It comes from years of suppressing what I truly see as beautiful. I don’t see the world the way everyone else does—and that’s my power. My work is a direct expression of my soul, my truth, and my perspective.
What would you do with $25,000?I’m choosing to invest in myself and turn my passion into a business.
