The Artist is Present / Performance Art
For the last project I wanted to be anonymous but still remain present.
My motto right now in life is LIVE+BREATHE+CREATE.
I tried to combine my love for interesting lighting, music, dance, and to just feel free. Free to be myself in this very moment, but the silhouette version of me. However, in some sense makes me feel that I am still holding back, and maybe need to try and let things go more, and humble myself. You only live once ( I think) and I need to feel more confident in my own skin and as an artist . Ever since I have been in school I feel I have struggled with my body and the way I look at times. The world can be really cruel , and in this era we are living in and everything we see on the news, tv, social media, can be a struggle not to compare yourself to others. I have never done performance art before, and it really has inspired me to continue to push myself and keep going. It has also has elevated my senses in the arts after educating myself on What Performance Art is ,and what it means to me. It will be interesting to see what lies ahead for performance art. I really learned a lot this semester with all the really cool projects. I am very grateful I took this class, and I hope everyone enjoyed my art as much as I did theirs !!! :):):)
Happy Holidays, and Happy New Year to all !!!
