I feel as though photography helped me tapped into my expressions without having to verbalize. It's a gift that speaks for itself.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I love creating projects with photography portraits and fine arts. Art that tells stories and showcase the theme from different aspects and perspectives.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration through situations or seasons I’m in. Art helps me put into picture what I’m going through. See visually helps me to actually see what I need to work on or what to pray about for my growth as a person. I also pray a lot for what my next project should speak to.
What would you do with $25,000?I would spend a portion of it on my work of course! I would spend some of it on studio time, art calls, portfolio building, travels for exhibitions I’m in, and much more. I would give back to some of the artists in my community who are also young and on the rise and need financial support. I’d put most of it up to save up to buy my own studio for all of my creative endeavors, this studio would be a space for pure creativity.
