Because I love to express myself!! I feel creation, through and by language and different mediums (wood) is the truest form of expression.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I like to make exotic contemporary art forms with various wood types from around the world… infused with metal, glass, stones and other elements.
Where do you find inspiration?From inside. From architecture.. from nature.. from the movement of others. From the future.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use it to enhance my outreach by renting/owning a gallery space that I have had my eye on here in the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex! It’s just always hard to get that “bulk money” for the down payment. This would help tremendously! Not to mention the exposure, coupled with some consistent social media ad campaigns. I actually would be able to reach out to people and hopefully inspire thought and wonderment across the globe with my handmade expressions.
