In the Shadows

• Artist Statement

  The still moment of a quiet reflection, the pause of thought about life and choice, the attire that spells modesty of one’s self, of one’s view, of one’s beliefs. It portrays the beauty of self-awareness, the beauty and importance of the calming nature surrounding one’s self. The choice of attire isn’t only for the reasons of modesty but for the decisions we have made for ourselves, our self respect, and a sign of bravery, bravery to be ourselves.

• Creative Statement

  Creativity means being able to freely express myself in a way that is sometimes not explained in words. Creativity means for me to bring my ideas and dreams to reality.
