Samantha's statement

Art is a personal statement that I use to express my ideas through. It is important for me to show a perspective of the human that differs from the reckless co-modification of its spirit. I feel that the world is caught up in greed, commercialism, and materiality that it overlooks the essence of what we are as human beings. We are meant to be expressive, we are meant to experience the world through our senses, we are meant to build a community together. I have been searching for my calling, what I have destined myself to do. I wish to show people that the potential of the human mind is beyond our current state of comprehension. I want to inspire people to live to their fullest potential, and cast aside anything that confines them. I seek to serve the greater good of humanity, to inspire and cultivate the wellspring of innovation of the creative mind. I question, through various artworks, What and Whose purpose do you serve?
