Artist Statement
<<My work draws from both the observation of the world around me and a taste for fantasy. As the world shifts with time, my art captures moments that may be real, surreal, or abstract, depending on the circumstances. Having been influenced by the tropical climate, I often use warm colors to convey a sense of place and emotion. My compositions feature dynamic gestures and diffused light effects, inspired by the random play of light in rainforests. These elements help evoke specific emotions within the viewer.
I am attuned to the ever-changing environment, and I see humanity, nature, and technology as intertwined forces that shape our new reality. Through my art, I aim to capture and convey this unique intersection, reflecting the vibrant energy of the world around us.>> (Billy Moro-Wey)
