MY REALITY
Reality is something we can never confidently know anything about. Our reality may very well be a fake; a delusion, a fabrication of what our brains really think reality is; just how our senses are so easily tricked into thinking a dream is real. Without these senses, the only thing I undoubtedly know for sure is that I am “me”, whom exists, somewhere, at sometime. This is why the only thing that has truly ever been mine is my thoughts and ideas, which are translated through my art. My art is my thoughts, it is “me”. I give what is real(me), allowing myself to be vulnerable and transparent so I can truly be seen.
Painting has always been for me, a sort of scape goat from reality. It allowed me dump my emotions all out at once and onto the canvas. It’s as if the canvas absorbs these feelings and seals them into my paintings.
‘Willow’. Oil on canvas. 2022.
‘Willow’, depicts the fading lonesome willow tree. Feeling trapped, misunderstood, and frustrated; the willow screams as blood starts raining from the sky.
‘Protector’. 2022.
A mystical being whom doesn’t necessarily protect your physical body but rather your spiritual elements.
‘UNPHASED.’ 2022.
We act as if everything is ok, but deep down we know it’s not; setting aside our personal dilemmas; we know this world is fucked. Our world is dying and it we are just so used to it that we are Unfazed.
‘Drunk n love’. 2022.
LOVE is something we all naturally desire as humans. However sometimes we forget that we can become impaired by it. Just as alcohol does, it affects your judgment and may cause you to make mistakes you’ll later on regret.
