ARIM Manifesto

I am here to rediscover the sanctuary I find in art. I want to make time for myself in this busy life, to create. I will focus on developing a variety of skills and exploring a wide range of ideas and mediums to document life becoming a mother, not long after losing my mother, and where I sit in the chaos. This work will help me untangle and negotiate the complicated feelings that have been defining me all too much. I want to regain my focus and discipline in spending time, even in small pockets, to create regularly, resulting in a body of work that I can see improving. I will share this work regularly to hold myself accountable and keep creative momentum going. I will seek opportunities to exhibit my work.
