There’s something deeply moving to me about artists who grow up inside rigid systems and still manage to make work that feels expansive, liberated, and completely their own. That’s what I feel looking at KEEMO Art work.

I just bought two of his pieces, including this one, and I can’t stop thinking about them. The work feels spiritual without preaching, emotional without trying too hard, and visually so alive that it almost feels transmitted from somewhere beyond language. You can feel the tension between structure and freedom in it — like someone who came from a religious framework but pushed far beyond its walls into something more universal, human, and honest.

A lot of art wants to look profound. This actually is.

The best artists don’t just make images — they expand perception. KEEMO is doing that.

Today’s art break features an original called, “The Vision For The Future Is Found In The Memories Of The Past.” I feel like the title is pretty straight forward on this painting. However, I would like to say that when I think of the future, I do my best to remain hopeful and I will always do my best to promote and create a positive and inclusive future (and present) for all. Here’s to all of you out here with me. Thanks for being here.
