The beginning

Writing poems started to be part of my practice since the beginning of the pandemic ,it was the only way that allowed me to express my thoughts fully without being observed or criticised. I could do mistakes and I would let them be mistakes .That was a time when I started being less critical on the way I create and think about art.

That was a time of reflection to me ,I always wanted my work to reflect my insight on life ,within the current times, but there was a long way to reach that place .I started by slowly incorporating colour words ,and shapes. This transition allowed me to see a different side of myself as an artist and engage into a therapeutical way of making work rather than striving for perfection.

Incorporating story telling within my work was an exciting idea ,which started to be a more consistent practice my current installation. For the creative writing part of my work ,I started learning more about the subconscious mind ,which allowed me to be more comfortable with the subject ,and write in a way that felt authentic to me. My research in dreams, was a slow but steady one ,and allowed me to become more committed in doing so by keeping a dream journal ,where I sketch and write parts that are more vivid while being in the sleeping state .

While rein visioning my dreams and memories ,the poems that I started creating are giving me a turning point which allowed me to observe my intentions more clearly, on the subconscious element of our minds .It made me question …What do I want the public to see feel and experience see this piece of work ?

Colours allowed my creative freedom to form and stabilise. Through this current installation ,I want to bring emphasis on the importance of intuitive part of creating art. Creation as a therapeutic activity rather than a feeling of obligation to fulfil the senses of productivity. Creativity flows when the forced productivity stops.
