Hello. I love to create art, because it is beneficial for my mental health. It is therapeutic, and inspires a forward movement in life.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Over my lifetime I have been blessed with opportunities to create music, preserve history, mixing media, and visual art. My favourite is photography, and in this case double exposure, black and white images.
Where do you find inspiration?As a Canadian earning a lower yearly income than most, I often find inspiration in unexpected places, and in things that can be mundane, overlooked, or misunderstood. I am a lover of love, and beauty in all its forms. I am the difference in perspective, individuals often miss, whilst rushing about their lives.
What would you do with $25,000?Otherthan just being able to pay my rent for a year without worry? ;) There are a few tasks I would love accomplish with these funds. I'd love to be able to finish my post secondary education in archaeology (cave paintings, petroglyphs, rock art), curation and film. (ARKHAIOS film festival). I'd love to put a headstone on my grandmother's gravesite. Also, I could afford the solutions to help maintain the disintegrating gravestones in our local cemeteries, where our ancestors rest. Thank you.
