I create to process life through feeling, shaped by culture, sound, and movement, guided by a quiet hope of shared humanity.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I paint on canvas and up-cycled clothing, and sometimes I also like to take photos.
Where do you find inspiration?My inspiration comes from my personal life, the streets I move through, and the energy around me.
What would you do with $25,000?I was recently displaced from my rent-stabilized apartment in Brooklyn, NY. My focus now is to regain my own space, a new home with a room dedicated as studio space again.
