I am an artist and mother. I create because it is my truest passion, cathartic and allows for expansion of the soul. If not… I would perish.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Every piece I create is a self portrait- a snapshot from this life’s experience and perspective. I hope to create a bridge through these moments captured. One that allows for a deeper understanding of myself and hopefully the viewer as well.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in all the parts - in the truly broken ones and in the resilience, in the deepest passion and in the tiniest glimmer of hope, in the truest love and most painful losses, and in the absolute undeniable beauty of it all.
What would you do with $25,000?I would be able to secure myself a studio space and the materials needed to create my next body of work. Currently my space at home is limited. Having a large functional studio would be completely life changing for this artists ability to thrive in my own creativity.
