“The creation of art is a transformative experience that can act as an avenue of healing and a catalyst for growth. Being immersed in hustle culture just trying to make enough money to live has forced us into a drab existence. An isolated, single-focus lifestyle has caused us to become disconnected from our fellow man and our community. I see this in everyone we meet, people desperate for meaning outside of just survival. I believe that art is the great uniter and can be the vessel for us to regain the severed connection to the creative energy we share with each other and the universe. A vital key to return meaning into our lives lies in healing through shared experiences. It is my goal as an artist and an educator to provide an avenue for people to find community, connection, and ultimately the sense of serenity and peace that escapes us in the struggle to survive. As a queer immigrant I often find myself struggling to make sense of the 3rd culture I have created for myself. Immersion into American Culture is akin to the combining of oil and water- parts of me exist along side each other, yet have a distinct separation and inability to homogenize. This struggle is reflected in the way I interpret the world and the work I create.”
