Art born from survival, a practice of shaping chaos into form while finding meaning in fragments that shape me and the world I reshape.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Surrealist interpretations of life experiences and the human condition.
Where do you find inspiration?In all things animate and inanimate. In the direct connection and tension between them, everyday objects, public spaces, architecture, and design. I’m inspired by the way chaos, memory, and human experience leave traces on the world around us, and how fragments that may seem disconnected can be reassembled into meaning. My work begins in observation seeing structure within disorder, emotion within form, and purpose within overlooked details.
What would you do with $25,000?To be featured in Artforum would be an incredible honor in itself. Beyond that recognition, the financial award would provide meaningful support in my life by helping me manage personal responsibilities while giving me greater freedom to continue building, evolving, and investing more deeply in my work as an artist.
