Artist Statement

“I am like a seven year old child always in the middle of seeing and discovering something new. I am poetically imaginative and romantically grounded in the possibility of everything. I still believe. I still believe in miracles Papa.” 

 

Sal da Terra

 

 

My process is simple. I move my consciousness: living through observation, listening and feeling. I allow myself to truly see and to truly feel. 

 

Over the years, I have met so many individuals who shared with me their own stories. All the words and Art in me, comes from all these places I’ve been and the collective unconsciousness of our world: our present, our historical past and our manifesting futures. 

 

I am a dreamer. A romantic. A literalist. I believe in joy. I believe in happiness. I believe in the magical union between soul and spirit. 

 

I live in a place that is open in myself to hear all the voices of the world. My writing and art reflects the spiritual tuning into all these emotions. My living occurs in degrees. I now understand the need to live within all our present moments. It is inside these moments life takes root. Life begins. 

 

My translation of experiences and emotions take flight. My memories of childhood, living on a small island in the middle of the Caribbean Sea, having a unique freedom to explore my imagination. This is where most of my creativity begins. 

 

My writing and art is tangled alongside all my memories of childhood and all my travels. My writing and art reflect my cultural influences, current experiences, and the people I've met along my journey. Every moment spent with those I love, even strangers all these stories are interwoven in me threading the fabric of my current life’s work.
