My Vision

Composing music provided me with an auditory outlet to express my emotions, and I painted simultaneously, exploring the limits of each art form. I remember showing my dad, a mechanical and software engineer, a song I wrote that conveyed a message well. He told me he couldn't sympathize with the song because it was something he couldn't see.

I wondered how I could show him music through my eyes. When I was 15, I began painting murals. As I'd paint, I'd listen to my favorite album, "Choose Your Weapon" By Hiatus Kaiyote and try to paint what I felt as I listened to the chords and rhythms. Through this, I learned that I had Synethesia, which allows me to experience sound through color.

This exposure inspired me to one day challenge the limits of both auditory and visual forms of art to create an immersive experience that combines both. In 2021, I started to explore digital art and came up with a new vision: How much more of an impact can we make if we combine music and visual arts through media such as virtual reality? The possibilities are endless as we step into a new era of tech that allows us to place ourselves in a different environment than our current state.

If the arts are a vital vessel for social change, then it is our duty as artists to seek to reinvent how we can reach the public through our craft and our vision. In a world of injustice, artists hold a mirror to society, and as a young artist, I'm thankful and honored to be part of a worldwide movement to inspire.
