According to the three fortunes I received with my two cookies, even in these tough economic times my sly nature will bring about a contagiously thrilling time.
My idea of conveying psychedelics and existentialism through these pictures was delivered through the semitransparent layer of people posing to match the artwork in the background of the photos. Psychedelics are actually a class of drug that cause hallucinations and are said to be linked with discovering things “out of body”. I find this concept fascinating, and i wanted to capture this. in the background the psychedelic and out of body vibe is given off by Alex Grey's artwork lined up with the semitransparent layer. These show the idea that there is a "third eye", so to speak, in all of us. My goal from the artist’s perspective was to capture the viewers eye with strong colors, courtesy of alex grey, and guide their eyes with patterns to look at the detail of the artwork in the background and how the art adds an “inside the person” idea to the portrait of the person
"Sing me something soft,
Sad and delicate.
Or loud and out of key:
Sing me anything."

Right on the coast. Pacific Coast Highway (PCH) in California, next to a cliff. To the right there is the ocean. :)
Another favorite feature at the Indianapolis Children's Museum is the Water Clock in the Sunburst Atrium. It's fascinating to watch this contraption work. It's part art and part mad science, with just enough existentialism thrown in -- it is time, after all.
I took this photo from behind the clock, because all my pictures from the front were weirdly lit, so the hours are on the right and the minutes are on the left, and the numbers are all backwards. The green neon is the clock's pendulum.

Reference to the philosophy of existentialism and absurdism.
Existence precedes essence.
The Absurd is the conflict between the human tendency to seek meaning in life and the human inability to find any.

Americans in Paris
An American couple at Café Les Deux Magots
Camus, Sartre and Hemingway used to frequent this cafe! Now it's a little hard to imagine an artist feeling comfortable enough to create in such a calculated atmosphere... nevertheless, I went in honour of Camus, my favourite writer.

Existentialism and White Castle.
I'm sure there are more vile places than White Castle. But not many. Even the seagul won't go near it.

Doll used as a prop within my video final piece, in relation to the photograph of the syrian refugee boy washed onto the beach to relate current day issues to existentialism, my face representing the uneasy coexistence of mind and body.
I am very interested in zodiac signs and I believe that they guide us in the universe. Thinking about existentialism I decided to draw several zodiac signs including mine. Then I put the drawing of the observatory that I did with watercolors. I used the observatory to represent the aim of my research on astrology. Later on, I digitally put my drawing of a pregnant woman in order to reflect the idea that everyone is born with different zodiac signs. We come to the world without having a chance to make decisions about our life. So, everything we have when we are born are our presents in this universe. As a result, our zodiac signs are our gifts. We need every type of person in our lives. Similarly, each zodiac sign has a purpose in our lives. So besides the genders, colors and nations I think astrology is one of the most important research to describe every human being.
Some people say there is no God because you cannot prove he/she exists...I disagree. Look at this, I posit there must be a God/ess, because you cannot prove he/she does not exist.
That which is not explained EXISTS.
Or as Einstein said "Once you can accept the universe as matter expanding into nothing that is something, wearing stripes with plaid comes easy."
