How does life exist? I understand that this world cannot exist without life. So that leads me to wonder how we exist in the context of this life. From what I realize life is a composition of complementary ideas and realities affected by the arrangement of nature. In nature we find diverse compositions that range from extreme opposites to complimentary formations.  However, the recognition of the other side or in other words, opposing contrasting elements, can add great value to the meaning of life.  Emotions are one such example.  To truly feel or speak about happiness we have to know about sadness. Likewise in nature we can appreciate and understand the meaning of light from the experience of the dark. This familiar and simple comparison of light and dark in the context of life and existence, helped to shape my perception and creation of art while allowing me to accept my very own existence. My art is a reflection of this quest to understand life and existence, my art work is filled with complementary colors balanced in of harmony, mirroring nature and even the not so natural occurrences that every now and then occur in life, disrupting, alarming, or even provoking our senses and state of natural existence.
