As Blue As The Robin’s Egg
Digital - 2023I often don’t know when good enough is enough with my art. Since I was in middle school, I’ve been fixated on the boundaries of my imagination and of the world in general. How far can we go in defining humanity and our identities? Who am I really?
In this work, I’ve taken an old drawing and pulled it forward into the present by recreating/pushing the extent of the original idea.
In this small way, I am reconnecting with the questions of whether I am destined to repeat the actions of my ancestral past or if I can still shape my own destiny within the context of my identity. This picture is nearly a portrait of my emotional state when I look into the mirror and wonder who I am and what I want most days.
