My Love of Art

I just recently applied for the Steve S. Kang Scholarship:

This is the essay I submitted along with the application and samples of my work. I want to share this because this is my mission, how I feel about art and what I want to do! If you have any ideas that will support my education and career, please write me.

Thank you.

Without art the world has no flavor; no expression of love, realization or beauty. Art is closest to the spiritual and practiced throughout the world cultures since time immemorial. Hollywood, literature, music— the root of it is art; we cannot resist it and therefore, technology advances for its distribution.

For this reason, I pursue multimedia communications. My love for various aspects of art was so great, I could not choose one, but chose a field that would engage me in all.

My goal is to use the media to engage: writing; the visual language; music; singing; elocution and public speaking, and dance— all abilities I have been blessed with, to create exhibitions that can blossom into social change and awaken society towards a higher consciousness.

My travels around the world, to namely India, Thailand, Japan, Russia, and Latin America, along with my upbringing in America has shown me my purpose: to discover and present through art and the media, the universality of all cultures.

My goal is great, but only possible through the coming together of similar minds. There is no other way for success than together. I appreciate your time and any resonance and support towards this love and message I hope to communicate.
