I create art to expose power, say what others won’t, and turn history into images people can’t ignore.
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 bold, unapologetic work that confronts power, history, and culture, art that makes people uncomfortable enough to think.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration from what people avoid: politics, media, and everyday systems. I pay attention to what’s hidden in plain sight and bring it forward.
What would you do with $25,000?I’d scale the message; bigger work, stronger visuals, and experiences that force people to face what they’ve been taught to ignore.
