TO SPEAK WITHOUT SPEAKING
Is one of the beautiful things about art. I guess that’s what I’ve been trying to achieve with my work. To convey emotions and feelings that deep down, I feel words alone cannot do justice. Therefore, I must photograph, dance, draw, make movies, whatever it is to get you to feel what I feel in ways far more effective than if I were to just tell you with words. And perhaps, in that way, we can have conversations about things we otherwise, wouldn’t be able to talk about. Perhaps, in that way, we can also address certain problems that we both find difficulty speaking about. Perhaps, in that way, we can, as cheesy as it sounds, make the world a better place.
