Description
-
Every art piece I create is an attempt to gain understanding. Each work reaches out in desperation, hoping to untangle the emotions that have no words yet.
Life is fleeting- as is everything we perceive around us. The moments in which we are faced with this are hard to overcome- but it can become a necessary step towards acceptance. And then, we can try to flourish within this alien world.
"Roadkill" came to fruition during an unexpected bout of psychosis. I tried to express the pain and realizations I worked through during that time, as well as the aftermath I was left with. We are all bursts of awareness, wandering the Earth in a human shell. To me, art is how we cry for help, how we rejoice in our advancements, and how we learn what brings us fulfillment and purpose.
