Artist Statement: i feel like the arts are such a beautiful form of expression, especially non-conformative art. stuff that is weird, i love it so much. i’m part of the punk scene around where i live, and i love live music so much and just the way you can go and throw yourself around and exist with other people while listening to kids your age making loud music. i also adore visual art, as you can see here, like painting and collaging and such. i think there’s so many things you can do and create, and there’s not necessarily any one ‘good’ to make art. pouring yourself out for other people to see, whether it be a gallery or an instagram post, is a really big show of vulnerability, and there’s beauty in that risk.
