Artists' Statements
Tomorrow is always approaching nearer every passing moment. In recent years, I have been so concerned about the future, now that I'm right at the turn on the road, I wonder if I ever have the chance to pull on the brakes. My idea of a successful life is not about where I end up, rather it is how I can make the most of my life, living in every moment. A constant reminder I will give to myself now and tomorrow, it's alright to take a breather from my journey and just pause to savour the world around me at this very moment.
Reverie means daydream, as it happens, art wasn’t always a path I’ve envisioned, it always felt like something unrealistic. I was introduced to drawing at an early age by my father, and from then on I spent my free time imagining fantastical stories and drawing on scrap pieces of paper when I could, while focusing on a more traditionally academic career. I took a leap of faith when deciding on post-secondary education and applied to an art school. Reverie is a little call back to those times, a reminder for me that I lose out on all the chances I don’t take.
