I want to inspire. After a late-in-life autism diagnosis, I thought I’d understand more about myself or art… truth is it didn’t matter.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I make a little bit of everything. I’m a painter, graphic designer, filmmaker, writer, illustrator and director. If it exists I can make art out of it. - @rookspro
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in the world around me. Truth is the best tonic and the natural act of creation is key to the locked door.
What would you do with $25,000?I would make my low budget feature film with one half of the winnings - then I'd eat the other half.
