I’m struggling to feel inspired by the paintings and drawings that I create. I have a yearning to create performance based pieces, pieces that appear then disappear. The pieces that cannot hang on walls or stay put in one place.

Maybe this means creating Ephermeral art is more my space? Rather than trying to force myself to create in the traditional sense that I’ve so often felt I have to be in in order to be a ‘real artist’.

Types of Ephemeral Art I could explore

Conceptual Art

Installations

Performance Art

Land Art

Street Art

Auto Destructive Art

Examples of Ephemeral Artists

‘The point about my art is to learn from it’
