Those of us that come from another country or just trying to get out to this world, we try to adapt and become “like everybody else”. We do this for one simple reason: we want to be accepted. You can ask me, “what’s wrong with this?” My answer would be: Nothing Is wrong about adapting or wanting to be accepted, but everything is wrong about becoming like everybody else. We all are individuals, and as individuals, we are having a different vision, different style, different education. And this what makes us and our art unique. I tried to be as everybody else, and I decided to create my art, take pictures in a way I thought it would be “accepted” and “appreciated” From the beginning, I was telling myself “don’t create art based on how you feel. Create your art in a way to be accepted. With some time, I started creating my art on “autopilot” without any passion, and guess what? I lost my vision, I lost my individuality. One day I was talking to a woman, she said, “How can you do it to yourself? Is it like slowly killing yourself? Your vision, your background, your accent is who you are. This all that makes you who you are.” I was thinking about what she said for several days, I understood that she is right. My background, my vision, my accent is who I am.
Stop trying to be “accepted” by society and social media. Be who you are. Because if you are who you are, you will create art reflecting your vision, your soul, and your style. Creating your art will help you to tell the story to make this world much better. Creating art that reflects your soul, passion, and vision will bring people close to you and will make people understand who you are. And this is the most important.
Because, as an artist, each of us has a voice to make a difference in someone’s life, make this world brighter and kinder. This is possible only if we will truly be who we are.
