I’m an Architect, industrial designer, artist, photographer, sculptor, educator. I’ve been a creative all my life. It drives me.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
As a multidisciplinary, designer picking a favorite is difficult architecture and sculpture are probably at the top of my list. In the last few years, my workflow has become very complex and I’ve been blurring the distinctions between the disciplines. I’m really excited about this evolution in my work.
Where do you find inspiration?As of late, I’ve been doing a deep dive into the syntactical connection between image and language, so my inspiration comes from many different sources. It can be a lyric in a song, a texture on a piece of concrete or a rusted out old car, a crack in the sidewalk anything and everything is a source. I just have to keep my eyes open.
What would you do with $25,000?Fund more experimental large format flatbed Printing, buy a 3-D scanner for my work, and continue to develop a cross disciplinary design lab incorporating AI, to be taught at the high school level….. I am currently in conversation with my old high school and I’m making inroads with the New York City Board of Education…… what I am proposing will revolutionize the way young creatives are educated at a very early stage. It will completely alter their approach to ideation.
