I see the world around me as a living piece of art, constantly shifting in color, texture, and emotion. Creating allows me to participate.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
My favorite art forms are watercolor and installations. I’m drawn to watercolor for its fluidity and unpredictability, and to installations for their ability to transform space and create immersive experiences.
Where do you find inspiration?I’m inspired by the life around me—everyday moments, people, environments, and subtle changes in light and atmosphere. Even simple experiences can spark new ideas and directions in my work.
What would you do with $25,000?This award would allow me to build a dedicated studio in my backyard, giving me a consistent space to create, experiment, and grow my practice. It would also help me expand the scale and ambition of my work.
