To me, art is a need, a way to make sense of the world around me.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I basically draw/paint on paper/canvas. There is something human and primal in a trace done by one's own hand.
Where do you find inspiration?Life. Isn't the world that surrounds us, both physically and emotionally enough? :)
What would you do with $25,000?PRODUCE a small e-booklet of my work with quotes/facts about our environmental crisis with links for people to contact government representatives and non profit organizations, FUND an annual award I have been putting together that celebrates ART COLLABORATIONS AND COMMUNITY (The Pietra Prize, this would be the third year which basic costs have been covered by ourselves), and DONATE the rest in your name to an environmental non profit like Greenpeace or Earth Justice.
Vote for Pietrapiana to become The People's Artist while supporting a great cause! Cast your free daily vote or make an even bigger impact when you vote by donation, supporting The Art of Elysium in their mission to use art as a catalyst to help people triumph over difficult life challenges.
