OFFICIAL ART-RELATED STATEMENT:

Though I don't try to make my art fit under any specific category, my art has been called psychedelic or "mind-manifesting" by many, subtly encouraging the viewer to find multiple meanings throughout and within- these multiple meanings and images being what I tend to call hidden treasures of the universe. They appear in many things, not just things created with the intention of being called 'art'. They are everywhere in existence- just look around your immediate surroundings right now and you will find them. Perhaps unintended images or meanings (yet since interpreted by some to have meaning), may have manifested that way because the artist was merely a medium to the flow of art rather than a conscious creator. In that case, those meanings gleaned from my art will produce different reactions in many and the chain of idea will be set forth. Without a doubt will some original meanings be lost in translation, but therein lies the beauty and that is realistically an example of information flowing through our collective consciousness. I like to provoke the spark of idea, even if (especially if) the idea will be transformed along the way.

When I create, it is mainly through the process of flow and unplanned stream of consciousness. I feel that after I create, I progressively find out what my piece might possibly mean... ideas seem to pop up; ways in which symbols could conceptualize the current underlying feeling of my life at that point in time.

My poetry is highly psychological in nature; through this psychological unveiling I strive to illustrate those fleeting, vague, inspiring, sentimental and sometimes bittersweet states of mind and psychological situations that words often fail to capture the essence of.



OTHER PONDERINGS:

Am I an artist? Well, I do make art, so I guess I am.

But more so, I like to call myself a medium.

Most of my art is created in a trancelike state (meaning, I don't consciously think or plan anything I create while I am creating it), therefore I consider myself more of a medium, rather than a planner of, these subconscious creations.

Oh, and also I make electronica with my partner :D Check out the website link below if you'd like to hear.
