ARTIST STATEMENT: I struggled a lot, when it comes to myself and struggled further within this year too. I find myself to be fleeting away from many things, emotionally and mentally, and I’m often told that I’m “getting there, but just not there yet.” However, it makes me feel rather loss of where I should be or what am I looking for. I created this small series about a traveler’s journey to search for something that must been valuable to them yet unknown to them as well. The series, The Traveler, is a collection of drawings that are drawn digitally. Although, I originally planned this series to be drawn in charcoal and other elements, however I struggled to keep up with it. Each drawing features the traveler in different places of subtle peace and curiosity of what if they are able to find what they are looking for. Whether it is ambitions, self-worth, confidence, or so on, I would like to be able to find what I’m looking for too
