When this project was first proposed I let out a deep sigh, the brief being, “what inspires you to make art”. I really dislike these types of questions because I can never give someone a straight answer. As an artist, maybe I should respond with something like, “the interconnected relationship between man and the machine”, or “the infinite exploration of oneself in pursuit of happinnes”. But it usually just comes out as, “mhmmm i’m not sure, maybe people”. I think it’s really hard to pin point what inspires me because most of my artistic process is me just trying to capture something I saw in a flash before it dissapates which I assume is an accumulation of symbols and thoughts that I’ve gathered over whatever period of time. This project should be a series, which I may do in the future but this print alone simply does not do the question justice. Although I am hating on the the brief pretty hard I do think I have gained some clarity through doing this print and think its aesthetically beutiful, I worked hard on it. Anyways, I have written descriptions in the store page of each asset in the print which all contribute to my “inspirations” when it comes to art, take a look if you’d like.
