Art is the expression of something otherwise inexpressible; the soul. Emotions, Feeling, Thoughts. It’s the abstract reality we create.

All of it. I’m a multimedia artist. I love to create characters, sceneries. I love to express art through movement, and tangible experiences that take you away from this rat-race reality, and the frustrations of a mundane life; such as the one I live. Art is an escape, but also it’s the window to the spiritual world we all yearn to be in.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in myself, due to the fact of all the strife and hardships I’ve faced. In spite of that, I draw people to me naturally, and effortlessly. I find motivation in myself loved ones such as my partner, and sisters. The people that need me. I find an escape in art; from classical art such as painting and sculpting. To crafting, and fashion. I also find this inspirational escape in the creation of videos, and music.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use that money to clear some debts, and buy supplies to continue creating art. Life has felt like a chase of the perfect situation, while climbing out of a struggle…art is the rope to pull me out of the hole. I am an artist, and an entertainer trapped living paycheck to paycheck, and settling for a job. That money would be my liberation.
