With my art I intend to produce media in a style which is instantly understandable and significant but extremely simple. Personally I am a huge fan of things that do not be explained, like an image that just captures every essence of a moment or occurrence in a single frame. I want those thousand words that a picture holds to be loud and clear. I am interested in developing my media through utilising elements of photography and filmmaking but I really want to branch into the realm of digital media creation. I intend to make media using a range of mediums. I have never considered myself someone who is capable of producing art through traditional means such as drawing or painting. My handwriting sucks, my sketching sucks and my graffiti sucks too. This is why I feel that media creation and capturing is the way I can best produce art that isn’t corrupted by lack of talent in the traditional sense.
A stylistic approach I have considered covering is that of spot photography or photojournalism, capturing moments of great emotion or activism that seem as to tell an entire story with minimal material. I have always had in interest in representation of surroundings and capturing moments in real life that I feel need to be saved forever. Mostly I want my art to be a something I myself really like. This may seem like a weirdly selfish or wrong thing to say in an artist statement but there are so many aspects of our lives that we don’t get to have complete say over, rarely do you get to do something completely from scratch. Creating art and media affords you that opportunity and the product of this opportunity should be something that satisfies the creator entirely.
