Art is a neutral force to facilitate unity in diversity, a self-expression & a forceful medium to mirror the social environment.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I do paintings, prints, installations, and sculptures. I love painting on tapestries and murals about justice and peace, unity in diversity, multiculturalism, migration, and Environmental protection.
Where do you find inspiration?I'm inspired to express my creative impulses because I believe art can convey a concept, a feeling, or an idea that may be difficult to express in words or in actions.
What would you do with $25,000?I organize and facilitate community interactive mural painting workshops for skills development, art therapy, and trauma healing. It is a free art workshop using my own resources. Any amount can help to sustain and continue the project.
