Golden Desire

• Artist Statement

  Golden Desire is about how crucial your motivation is in everyday life. A kind desire leads to more compassionate actions, and in my short story, a rose rewards those who act on a selfless motivation. My goal in writing this story was to bring light to there is a direct correlation between internal desires/thoughts and external actions. We all have the ability to control our mindset and the way it transcends into our words and actions.

• Creative Statement

  Exploring and expressing my creativity is personally impactful because I am able to vocalize aspects of myself that would have otherwise never been brought to life, and gain a more holistic perspective about both myself and the world.
