ARTIST’S STATEMENT
|
One should come prescribe with venturesome attributes. Embedded within my idealistic philosophy is an explosive quantity of wilful naivety. There is always an element of play involved. A slightly naive and infantile way of doing things. Enclosed with passion and spontaneity as fuels, surveying life as unreality, I crave to restructure factual by romanticizing it dramatically! |
