"I create art to resurrect myself daily by turning survival into visible testimony."
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
My favorite type of art to create is the kind of art that is real by showing a real emotion, a real experience, a real thought , a real idea , something that otherwise will eat you alive if you dont take it out and put it into the canvas.
Where do you find inspiration?My inspiration comes from my own life,pain, depression, suicidal thoughts, stress, death, philosophy, my daily grind at work, and the minimum wage worker who goes unnoticed or ignored by the system.
What would you do with $25,000?I'm going to invest it in a small studio for art that way I would be able to keep creating more art without the restrictions that I have at my small apartment now and explore new frontiers and invite many others artists to the studio and create a community of artists that can grow exponentially by sharing moments experiences with others and enjoy life and art as a way of living that can change people's life for good as a community and ultimately as a society, a new way to see art, a new movement
