Outside the Box: Values
Connection to our shared humanity
• Expressing the inherent duality of the human condition – being small/big, vulnerable/brave etc
• Encouraging compassion for oneself and others
• Capturing moments of joy and connection
• Reflecting awe at the wonder and beauty of life
• Inspiring hope and a sense of individual empowerment
Social responsibility
• Representing people of diverse colors, physical abilities and sexual orientations
• Expressing and documenting important issues of our times
• Being a resource for under-served and disadvantaged communities
• Amplifying the messages of local and global environmental activists
• Improving business practices – e.g. reducing reliance on un-environmental materials, using local suppliers
Questioning how I can be of service through my art, rather than my art simply benefitting me and my immediate audience.
