When working with children,it's impossible not to create.It's the only way to communicate and make learning effective.From drawing to music.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Art encompasses almost everything. Someone who writes music can paint a picture, write stories, or interpret a character. I play the piano, combine glue, tempera, pencils, pastels, and old cardboard to create a painting. I write theater scripts, prepare choreography, and take analog photographs.I love transforming into characters, and I combine all of this for my school work.
Where do you find inspiration?Everywhere. From a cactus to create an alien figure, from a tile in the kitchen to draw a fairy. Many ideas come from listening to music, others simply from walking and observing: from the lady pulling her dog, to the girl looking at herself in the shop window. And then, from silent films: those expressions no longer exist.
What would you do with $25,000?Honestly, first of all, a trip. Then I will buy my husband a Gibson Les Paul. And finally, opening a free art workshop for the children in the afternoon, so as to wean them off their phones and tablets, which are now a curse.
