Art is my release and my voice—it’s how I share myself with the world and help others feel seen and understood.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I create character-driven art across traditional and digital mediums, including painting and tattoo-inspired pieces. My work is shaped by both imagination and emotion, using art as a way to express and process what I feel. I also value helping others bring their ideas to life, allowing their stories and visions to exist beyond their own minds.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in my imagination, my emotions, and the things I consume—like webtoons, film, and other creatives. I’m especially inspired by people, their stories, and how creativity can shape perspective and push someone to grow. Watching how storytelling and art influence others drives me to create and share my own perspective.
What would you do with $25,000?I would invest in my growth by putting money toward education, upgrading my tools, and creating a stable space where I can fully focus on my art. With the right environment and resources, I’d be able to stay consistent, expand my skills, and develop personal projects like original characters and storytelling, while continuing to help others bring their ideas to life.
