I am deeply passionate about creating art that delves into the unseen aspects of urban existence, exploring the "underground" scenes of life
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
My process is rooted in a "tactile dialogue" between digital and analog techniques, often starting with digital compositions and light projections before finishing with traditional paint on surfaces like canvas or reclaimed wood. My art is often heavily textured, and my work explores the intersection of pain, beauty, and emotional depth, frequently utilizing "layers of dark and muted hues of oil paint and ink."
Where do you find inspiration?Finding inspiration for atmospheric, dark, and emotional art can be a deeply personal journey. Explore the complexities of human emotions and the nuances of the natural world around you, delving into literature, music, and historical events that evoke a sense of depth and feeling. Observe the interplay of light and shadow, and how different textures can convey mood. Allow your own unique experiences and perspectives to guide the creative process.
What would you do with $25,000?Rent an art studio so my family wouldn't be exposed to thinners and oil paints.
