What
are the common senses or elements of other people’s work that you find
attractive?
I like when it’s really
clear looking at someone’s work what their obsessions are; what does this
person dream about, what are they drawn to?
This
pandemic has brought about major changes in the world, but what changes are you
experiencing in the design/art field?
The most clear change
taking place is the newfound appreciation for a healthier work/life balance.
Everyone is realizing hustle culture is not all it’s cracked up to be. We’re
all tired of having three side projects and no personal life. Many of my friends
have stopped monetizing their hobbies and started simply enjoying things for
fun again. It’s a very small shift in the grand scheme of things, but quite a
fresh mentality to subscribe to for most people.
Please
tell us about your future plans and prospects, including your personal hopes.
My toxic trait is
probably the fact that I don’t think too far ahead. I love to live one day at a
time, and I treat every day like it could be my last. Maybe [it’s]
a symptom of the environment I grew up in. My personal hope is simple at the
moment— to travel to as many places as possible, meet incredible people around
the world and share ideas over good food. If there’s anything the pandemic took
from me it would be that, and my goal is to reclaim it as soon as it’s safe to.
