About Me
There's not much to know other than that I identify myself under the pseudonym Phoenix Fawkes and this is where I share my art.
​
I have been thinking a lot about my creative projects and the need to share them publicly. Why should I share them instead of keeping them private, only for myself to see? Is it attention and approval of others, that I am seeking? Is it to gain likes and comments of strangers to get a short-lived high? It might be. To a certain degree humans surely need to be liked. But I thought about the consequences, if everyone stopped sharing their art. We would live in an uninspiring, uncreative, artless (and with that, soulless) society. I look at artworks from others and get inspired. This is why I started painting, making videos, taking photos, writing essays. I am where I am now and do what I do because others inspired me to. This is why it is important to share art, creative projects and passions. Without art, we are nothing.
​
Since I didn't find an appropriate platform to share all my creative projects, I decided to create my own website. Here I am free to post photos, videos, essays, poems and more. This is a safe place for me to share my passions, without the need to impress. Without seeing, who liked it and who didn't. I don't know who visits my safe place and with that, it remains safe. I am sure, whoever is visiting, is here for the right reasons: to quietly look at someones art and hopefully get inspired to create their own.
