The Touch of Life

Touch of Life represents the symbiotic relationship between an artist and their art. It is a take on Michelangelo's “The Creation of Adam” where God breathes life into Adam, the first man. Here, the artist literally brings life into their art by creating it; yet, the art also brings meaning and purpose into the artist's life. This mutually beneficial relationship is shown as the paintbrush and the hand both reach for each other.

To me, creativity is the ability to convey your thoughts in various ways, as well as being able to think outside the box. Personally, photography allows me to convey my abstract messages or ideas through visible images rather than through words.
