artist statement

this is an excerpt from my artist statement for installation:

"The significance of this work to me lies in what I feel is a disparate
gap between childhood and adulthood. So much of our freedom to imagine
is lost in the cracks of life as we become bombarded by practical
responsibilities and the realities of things like hatred and
prejudice. I'd like to help remind people of the happiness imagination
and innocence brings, offer a brief return to childhood fantasies."


ideally this is what i want to express in my art. at the least, it's an aim to attempt.
...plus it gives me the freedom of over-saturation and an explicit absence of any form of negativity.
it's exciting because it could be a fun direction to go.
