Art creation should be free of anxieties and frustrations. Comparing it to an orgasm, an artist should feel liberated, intense pleasure, and free of restrictions.
It wasn't that way for this particular artist.
Her works focuses on self exploration, identity, human experiences and fantasies. Symbols are often used in her narrative works. The most prominent ones are the scribbles on the face.
It's used to convey a loss of one's identity - hence, the figures mostly appear to be traveling, looking for something that was lost. It's also used as a symbol for general anxiety of anticipating the future.
Photos taken by me. I also just want to put my artist statement out here, for the future historians to use. :p
This is the reason why I chose the pseudonym Squirterer. I also still use my real name in signatures, but I use that pseudonym to represent and symbolize my creative freedom... The added "er" in the end is just to make it sound cute and silly instead of the boring "squirter". Haha.
I shouldn't be afraid of creation and what ideas I need to discuss and you shouldn't too.
