Current work S%*t

SSSooooooooo lately I’ve been doing a lot of work on both paintings and writings for my present series of art and research. Thought I’d give a bit of insight as to what my art represents currently. The main concepts of my work is circulating around the communications an individual who is unfamiliar in the experiences of sexual assault may somehow comprehend the damages rape can cause. Also, the ideas of how experience’s truly ignites knowledge I find to be rather amazing. Before I was raped I’d been passive and somewhat indifferent to these issues. Someone would make a joke or a silly comment about sexual violence and I would either ignore or laugh along with it. But when I WAS raped all these comments, images, and actions became so affirming that they felt like a literal slap in the face. It took me two years to even accept what had happened to me and three years to not feel shame or hatred for myself. So I decided to comprise these works of art from these revelations, mainly due to an unfortunate event involving eight girls from my college being raped and when they had gone to report it the heads of the university threatened their ability to stay at this school. These girls were betrayed by these people in order to avoid bad PR. Straight up…that’s bull. I want to bring awareness and educate people that this is not an issue that needs to be disregarded.

*If anyone wants to email me their stories I’d love to read them. They prove to be valuable research material for this series of work based on the language each individual use to tell their story. These writings will not be published and will only be viewed by me. However, the information tile for each piece will contain the phrase “inspired by a survivor.” And your name if you want it, if not that’s fine.

Thanks :3

just as the title says "wow!" it has been a long time since I've spent some time here. i just could never bring myself to delete this thing :) glad i didnt. since its been so long (like 4 years ) since i last did a journal entry might as well give an update. im a senior in college and the work that is shown now is stuff i do as my life now. i work at a gas station for extra money and im a big member of my department at my university. i live with the love of my life and i'm writing a bunch of stories that will hopefully be published soon. if some are interested i have no problem posting little teasers up but not the whole thing. sorry but i got no idea who would read them and what they would od with it and my stories, like my art, are my babies. well that's all i really got to say so if anyone has any questions about my art just ask ill respond. i'll update my next show and hope to maybe seem some of ya in person but if not its cool, your likes are just as much support. now i;m going to listen to my damn neighbor whining about his five kids and how they dont love him and stuff like that.
