You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I mainly create figurative art through drawing and painting. I am especially inspired by the female body and spiritual figures like the Virgin, exploring femininity, inner presence, and quiet strength.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in spirituality, travel, and the places where I live. Moving from France to Miami deeply influenced my work. I am inspired by light, nature, and symbolic elements, as well as personal experiences like family, migration, and building new roots.
What would you do with $25,000?I would invest in my artistic development by creating a dedicated studio space, buying materials, and continuing to develop my skills as I grow in my practice. After changing my life to follow art, this opportunity would help me go further, create more, and share something meaningful with others.
