STATEMENT OF ART:
Creating ART is a reflection of the artist's soul. Art has a duty to reflect society in a critical manner by raising questions, as well as materializing the words, thoughts, and visions into material works of art.
As an artist, I deeply believe we have a moral and aesthetical responsibility by creating "Good and Quality ART". This way We achieve more as artists and humans, than by doing the opposite.
