If it exists in nature, why augment? I cannot perfect nature.
If it has been done before, why duplicate? I want to create my own artistic reality. My life experiences have been diversified and spiritual. What I express in my art embodies my autobiography. Time does not exist. All that exists is my own consciousness, raw emotions, thoughts, and the materials. When I am told something cannot be done, I interpret that as a challenge to prove I can do it. In art, there is no right or wrong—only limitless opportunities. My art exists to be enjoyed by everyone, but I do not need an audience to be fulfilled. I once read that if you are born with the creative gift of being an artist, your life’s course is predetermined; you will never be happy doing anything else. I believe this to be true. |
