VERONICA MARTHA - @lovethymermaid
Veronica Martha Domanski is a visual artist, illustrator, and video creator from Montreal. Her studio is her tablet and wherever she choose to create depending on my location in the world, space and time. Veronica’s palettes are very colourful, and her goal is to create visual escapism through her surrealist themes in order to honour the different emotional states we, as humans, go through in our reality.
PROJECT: Alienated
Alienated is a small collection of illustrations which star a group of alien creatures, their gender and identity aren’t specified for a reason.
I wanted to address what many of us may feel as we evolve into who we are, sometimes we are uncertain of our place in this world. We wear clothing, makeup, and other worldly objects to represent our outer vessel, but in the end we will still feel as though we don’t really belong, as though we are some creature from space that landed on the wrong planet.
That’s how I felt while I was creating these pieces: Alienated. I felt as though everything around me, the people and my environment, were separated from my identity. It wasn’t an identity crisis, but the feeling of being withdrawn from society because of my ideas, thoughts, and creative pursuits. I want anyone who is looking at these illustrations to find a connection to this feeling, and to remember that we create our own life, and it is unique for a beautiful reason.
