Manifesto
Art is a conversation where meaning is co-created. There is no difference between artist and spectator. There are only participants working with this dialogue as a medium.
On each side there’s a kind of text sent back and forth, what's subtly underneath, the circumstances surrounding it, and its relationship to things outside of itself.
This messaging is directly tied to identity and experience. All three are connected and work in alignment with each other for meaning to be made.
