'she chose to live in her pink bubble'

art statement

In my teenage years, friends addressed me as: ‘she lives in her pink bubble'; I didn't like it, and at that time, I couldn't understand it. I just thought about how much they were hurting my feelings and how negative and misunderstood connotations they had of who I was. 

After all, was I delusional about the world and humankind? Living in a pink bubble meant to be delusional? 

While after, maturity {and psychotherapy} starts to blossom inside... It made me realize how I truly chose to live in my pink bubble. The bubble {or the delusion}, itself, means the capability of seeing the world and its living species and believing in it. In a way of achieving eyesight and manifesting evolution; love; kindness; and positivity. If I don’t see the world like this, then it is meaningless. 

She is capable of seeing the world differently after touching a bubble because the world flows with her. 

Being inspired by powerful filmmakers and video artists such as Maya Deren, William Wegman, ‘Two Dogs and a Ball’, Christian Noelle Charles, 'PR 4 Us' (2019), and Kimsooja ‘For me, all the questions I had personally or professionally as an artist were always linked to life itself; I see art in life and life as an art, and I couldn’t separate those from one another’;
