Manifesto
Stephanie Nadia Halim
illustrator/animator
I am an artist.
An artist so sick and tired, of having to conform herself with all the unnecessary boundaries for the sake of pleasing others, when they expect you to be “phenomenal”.
Through all my experiences.
No more shall I ignore the true calling of myself as an artist,
who will do what she loves, for I know that I am worth it and I do not need others to tell me otherwise.
I do not fall into a black hole twice and do not expect me to.
Today, I embrace my most inner desires to be an artistic, creative, unique, and brave individual, who will pursue her own dreams, in a world where many fail to do so.
I shall never be afraid to step out of my comfort zone to pursue my own creative and invaluable ideas.
I stand unshaken, and I will live up to my life purpose as a well-deserved, respected and thriving artist.
I refuse to spend my precious days trying to chase a dream that is not mine.
For I am a dream chaser,
and they may call us the dreamers, but we are the ones who do not sleep.
So it is and so it will be.
