Kristel Becares
Chicago, Illinois, USA
As a student of life, I create art inspired by all my fascinations of the world. Woven into my work you can find elements of history and nature, mythology and theory, human behavior, and language. As a person experiencing life, I create art because of how miraculous it is to exist in this world. My work is driven by beauty and angst, love and limerence, memories and dreams, and all my varied fixations. Whether in a painting, drawing, comic, or poem, there is a piece of myself and a piece of the world each trying to make sense of one another.
