Abstract
Esotericism and Living references the journey in which we travel deep within our soul.
My art explores the connection with our shadow self and our external self that we show the world. Oftentimes our soul unmasked is misunderstood or ignored. Every choice we make in life has been carefully weighed to ensure it fits within the ideal scheme of our external world. Yet, there are two worlds. The outer world is that which we all interact with, and is the world most commonly referenced, but within each of us is a world where our shadow-self resides.
To show the differences of these two worlds I will be working with the theme of mirrors and portals to simultaneously show both worlds through a fine art lens.
