Sam Aylwin Lancashire, United Kingdom
Artist, Tutor, Therapist. I use a mixture of intuitive processes, traditional art media & observations as starting points for exploring the poetry of our times. Motivated by the good that can come from art, through expression, healing, joy and creating meaning. Inspired by the concept that each and every individual is a unique and necessary part of life.
"TO PRACTICE ART, NO MATTER HOW WELL OR HOW BADLY, IS A WAYTO MAKE YOUR SOUL GROW. SO DO IT! KURT VONNEGUT I am fascinated by the act of making art, the human mark is so expressive, and thanks to neuroscience it is good for us to do on a physical, psychological, and spiritual level. I am fascinated by the attribution of meanings to what is made, and that realizations or ideas, just arrive! And can be used as a tool for personal growth, as I am fascinated by the way certain marks and colours carry energy and feeling and the potential for this to be used for good in the world like prayers. I am fascinated by the mere fact that each time I set down to create, something arrives from nothing, even when I begin with no intention or predetermined idea. The profundity of this is akin to the wonder that the stars, planets and everything that makes up the universe as a functioning mathematical phenomenon that even exists and can be relied on for all kinds of applications absolutely and yet still be unknowable.
